Record 26 Temple Players Make NFL Rosters

PHILADELPHIA – Now that the National Football League rosters are set for opening day, a record-setting 26 former Temple Owls have made their respective teams.

A group of Owls is called a Parliament and the cornerstone of this Parliament is located in Carolina. Newly minted Panthers' head coach Matt Rhule spent years recruiting a similar type of player to 10th and Diamond and he's banking on that same type of player to bring success to the Panthers.

During the offseason he brought seven former Owls to Charlotte and he kept six on the 53-man roster.
