NFL Trade Rumors recently published a review by Logan Ulrich that picked out one undrafted free agent from every team that we should look out for heading into training camp. Ulrich prefaced the review by stating the following:
“About a third of all NFL players come Week 1 will be undrafted free agents. In this issue, we pinpoint one rookie free agent from every team to watch in 2022.”
Upon reading this, I didn’t realize that nearly one third (or 500 of 1,700) of players on active rosters come the start of the regular season come to their teams via UDFA.
