Three Bulldogs dream of a career in the NFL

For the third straight year, not a single Fresno State player was selected in the NFL Draft. But a number of players are not giving up on the idea of playing professional football.

The NFL has had a slew of players that went undrafted but still found success in the league. Tony Romo, Antonio Gates and Arian Foster – to name a few – all carved out careers filled with Pro Bowl seasons, in spite of going undrafted.

It was not easy. All three of the aforementioned NFL stars and all other undrafted free agents were faced with an uphill battle in their quest for a contract.
