Where are all the UW Huskies and WSU Cougars in the NFL?

All eight of the Washington Huskies taken in the 2019 NFL draft will start the first NFL week on the 53-man roster.

Throw in undrafted quarterback Jake Browning, who is on the Minnesota practice squad, and that makes nine first-year UW players in the NFL.

It’s the most since 10 Huskies were drafted in 1998.

Overall, 31 former UW players are on NFL 53-man rosters or practice squads this season, according to Overthecap.com.
