Texas Longhorns in the NFL: Detroit Lions safety DeShon Elliott bounces back with big day

The NFL kicked off last week. Of course, that’s not exactly news to y’all.

But it does mean we had an opportunity to see former Texas Longhorns shine in the pros.

Shine they have indeed. Let’s break it down below.

Colt McCoy, QB: Welcome back into the fold, McCoy. The Longhorn legend stood in for starter Kyler Murray again over the weekend. He completed 24 passes for 218 yards and 1 interception. He also carried the ball 3 times for an additional 6 yards through the dirt.

Colt McCoy is by far the best option for the Cardinals pic.
