Stanford leads the Pac(k) with 27 former players making NFL 53-man rosters

The NFL cut day came and went and most NFL teams were subject to trimming their rosters from upward of 80 players that they carried this offseason down to 53 players.

The Pac-12 is well represented at the professional level and with that, we counted down how many athletes landed on NFL rosters from each team.

And you guessed it — your Stanford Cardinal led the way in the Pac-12.

Stanford placed 27 players on active NFL rosters, tying Washington for most in the conference, by a long shot.
