2022 NFL rosters feature players from every Pac-12 school

As the 2022 NFL season begins, 264 former Pac-12 football players from all 12 conference schools find themselves signed to NFL contracts. As of Monday, Sept. 5, 180 of those players have made active rosters.

Four different schools Washington, UCLA, USC, and Stanford have at least 20 players on active NFL rosters. That marks the third-most of any conference.

The NFL season kicks off Thursday, Sept. 8 with two former Utah Utes going head-to head. Pro Bowl kicker Matt Gay and the Los Angeles Rams will being their title defense against third-year running back Zack Moss and the rest of the Buffalo Bills, the odds-on 2022 Super Bowl favorites.

Matt Gay deserves so much credit. He launched the Rams into the NFC championship with the Kick in Tampa Bay, then he proved CLUTCH against SF to give the Rams the lead with under 2 minutes left in the 4th qrt. Arguably, Gay had the best year in Rams franchise history as a Kicker pic.twitter.com/SExY6GRpn8

Five former Pac-12 quarterbacks have earned starting duties for their NFL squads. Stanfords Davis Mills will again take the reins for the Houston Texans after a promising rookie campaign, Californias Jared Goff will attempt to get the upstart Detroit Lions back to the postseason and Oregons Marcus Mariota takes over with the Atlanta Falcons.

And then theres Justin Herbert and Aaron Rodgers , two superstar quarterbacks on Super Bowl-hopeful teams.

Herbert was last seen putting together one of the all-time great fourth quarter performances (two touchdowns on four fourth-down conversions to force overtime) for the Los Angeles Chargers in a heartbreaking loss to Las Vegas in their season finale.

With one more year of experience under his belt, the former Oregon Duck is a trendy pick to take home NFL MVP honors.

But hell have to unseat Rodgers, whos won back to back MVPs with the Green Bay Packers.

The former Golden Bear is looking to cap one of the greatest careers in football history with a second Super Bowl ring.

Thirty Pac-12 rookies have earned NFL contracts, including four players taken in the 2022 NFL Drafts first round.

One of these rookies, Atlantas Drake London, is looking to become the latest USC product to make an impact in their first pro season, following in the footsteps of Detroits Amon-Ra St. Brown and Indianapolis Michael Pittman Jr..

St. Brown was most recently seen listing every single wide receiver taken before him at the 2021 draft on Hard Knocks. To say hes highly motivated would be an understatement.

St. Brown and the rest of the Pac-12 in the NFL are about to get their next shot to show they belong.
