The Wisconsin football team has a long history of success stories in the NFL. Some of those players started their careers as heralded draft picks, but many have the humblest of beginnings, as undrafted players.
More than 100 undrafted Wisconsin football players have gone on to play in the NFL.
Thirteen undrafted Badgers have gone on to win an NFL championship or a Super Bowl, depending on the era they played. There’s even an undrafted Badgers player in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Here’s a look at some of the Badgers who made it to the NFL as undrafted players but still put together solid NFL careers, starting with some honorable mention picks.
