The NFL season kicked off Thursday night, and several rosters are littered with former Razorbacks suiting up at the professional level.
All told, there are 22 Pro Hogs on 14 different teams, with five on practice squads and 17 on the initial 53-man rosters that were announced Aug. 27.
One of the longest-tenured Razorbacks in the NFL is quarterback Brandon Allen, who is going into his eighth season in the league and will — along with Joshua Dobbs — back up San Francisco 49ers starter Brock Purdy this season.
Allen and Patriots tight end Hunter Henry are both going into their eighth seasons of professional football.
There are three players from last season’s team who made NFL rosters. Cornerback Dwight McGlothern signed an undrafted free agent deal with the Minnesota Vikings and made the cut, while kicker Cam Little and offensive lineman Beaux Limmer were drafted in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft.
Arkansas has four offensive linemen in the league currently, and it’s interesting to note that most of them — save for Hjalte Froholdt, who was a defensive lineman at Arkansas until 2016 when he moved to offensive line — were coached by Arkansas head coach Sam Pittman, either during his stint as offensive line coach from 2013-15 or as head coach.
