Presidential College Football Players Throughout History

With Eli Drinkwitz signing a four-star wide receiver named James Madison on the Fourth of July, I wanted to find out how many college football players shared a name with a former president. Madison, to his credit, has embraced his historic moniker, committing on our nation’s birthday and embracing the #prez nickname. (To be fair, he didn’t go ALL IN, committing to Mizzou and not the Sun Belt program that also bears his name.)
