The NFL roster cut-down day brought mixed news for former Syracuse Orange players. While there is still over a week until the regular season starts, here are the Syracuse players who landed spots on the 53-man rosters:
Matthew Bergeron- Atlanta Falcons (Starting RG)
Andre Cisco- Jacksonville Jaguars (Starting S)
Nolan Cooney- Arizona Cardinals (Starting P)
Riley Dixon- Denver Broncos (Starting P)
Zaire Franklin- Indianapolis Colts (Starting LB)
Kinglsey Jonathan- Buffalo Bills (Backup DE)
Chandler Jones- Las Vegas Raiders (Starting LB)
Ifeatu Melifonwu- Detroit Lions (Backup CB)
Sean Tucker- Tampa Bay Buccaneers (RB2)
It’s great to see more recent Syracuse players finding their way onto rosters and it might not be long before two rookies are in starting roles.
