Orange in the NFL: Recapping week 4 for Syracuse football alumni

We’re already four weeks into the NFL season, and many Syracuse Orange football alums are leaving their mark. Here’s all you need to know about how former Orangemen are performing at the professional level.

Nolan Cooney, Arizona Cardinals

The rookie punter was needed three times in Arizona’s blowout loss to San Francisco, averaging 39 yards per boot. Cooney has only put two of his 13 punts inside the 20-yard-line this season, tied for 29th best in the league. He’ll continue to get elevated reps with a struggling Cardinals offense.

Garrett Williams, Arizona Cardinals

According to head coach Jonathan Gannon, Williams is progressing in his recovery from a torn ACL.
