Utes in the Pros: 2022 NFL Week 11; Week 10 Recap
SALT LAKE CITY – Thirteen former Utes are set to suit up and 23 players with ties to the program are on NFL rosters as we head into Week 11 of the 2022 season.
Five different games this coming Sunday are slated to feature former Utes, including four contests kicking off at 11 a.m. here on the Wasatch Front. Monday Night Football will then pit former teammates Leki Fotu and the Arizona Cardinals against Mitch Wishnowsky's San Francisco 49ers, in a 6:15 p.m. MT game down in Mexico City.
Cody Barton had a birthday last Sunday and marked the occasion with his first career interception. It was part of a nine-tackle outing for Barton and the Seattle Seahawks, as the squad faced Tampa Bay in the first NFL regular season game to be played in Germany.
