If we’re going to see more Syracuse football players in the pros this season, it’s not going to come easy. Only one player was drafted in 2018 (Zaire Franklin) and all the rest are undrafted free agents taking the toughest road to make the final roster (Steve Ishmael).
While history is certainly on their side when you look at the special connection between Syracuse and Indianapolis with numerous greats playing for this organization: John Mackey, Marvin Harrison, and Dwight Freeney to name a few.
There certainly is tendons between the past and the future, but these players need to create their own legacies.
