Former Ole Miss players secure roster spots following NFL cut day

NFL teams finalized 53-man active rosters this week, confirming the status of several former Ole Miss players across the league. Twenty-six players from the university appear on current NFL rosters, with wide receivers forming the largest position group at eight players. The Indianapolis Colts and Arizona Cardinals lead all organizations by housing three former Rebels apiece. While each team in the NFC East currently features at least one former Ole Miss player, no representation exists among NFC North clubs. Notable roster assignments include Jaxson Dart with the New York Giants and AJ Brown with the New England Patriots. Clubs are expected to finalize practice squads following the conclusion of initial roster trimming, a process set to be reviewed in subsequent updates.
