Former Houston area high school stars in Super Bowl LIII

The Patriots-Rams Super Bowl matchup is pretty split with Houston representation.

When the Rams take the field for Super Bowl LIII on Feb. 3, they'll have two players who attended Houston ISD schools, and the possibility of another player from Alief, with former Alief Taylor star Ogbonnia Okoronkwo dealing with a foot injury.

The Patriots' only Houston player is defensive back Eric Rowe, who attended Klein High School, but he's on the injured list. However, the Patriots do have players who grew up just outside of Houston with linebacker Elandon Roberts starring at Port Arthur Memorial High School and offensive lineman LaAdrian Waddle playing at Columbus High School.
