Quarterback

Sean Mannion (2010-14) - Seattle Seahawks - Practice Squad

-> Mannion is currently a member of the Seahawks' practice squad...

Jake Luton (2017-19) - New Orleans Saints - Practice Squad

-> Luton is currently a member of the Saints' practice squad...

Running Back

Jermar Jefferson (2018-20) - Detroit Lions - Practice Squad

Wide Receiver

Brandin Cooks (2011-13) - Houston Texans - First String

-> In Houston's 32-31 win over Indianapolis, Cooks easily had his best performance of the season, tallying five receptions for 106 yards and a touchdown. It was the first time in 2022 that Cooks crossed the 100-yard threshold...

With significant changes on the way in Houston and Cooks set to make 18 million (second-highest on team) in 2023, Cooks will likely be on the move. He mentioned in his exit interview (see below) that he doesn't want to go through another rebuild, so he could be one of the top receivers on the trade block this offseason and instant help for a 2023 contender...

Isaiah Hodgins (2017-19) - New York Giants - First/Second String

-> In New York's 22-16 loss to Philly, Hodgins didn't see action as the Giants were resting their typical starters. It's been quite a journey for Hodgins who went from the Bills' practice squad to a rested starter with the Giants by week 18, but the NFL is all about making your opportunities count and that's exactly what Hodgins has done with the G-Men... Hodgins and the Giants will square off with the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday at 1:30 p.m. on Fox... Hodgins has tallied 37 receptions for 392 yards and four touchdowns this season...

Tight End

Noah Togiai (2015-19) - Philadelphia Eagles - Practice Squad

-> Togiai is currently on Philadelphia's practice squad...

Teagan Quitoriano (2018-21) - Houston Texans - First/Second String

-> In Houston's 32-31 win over Indy, Quitoriano started at one of the tight end spots and was the team's second-leading receiver behind Cooks, hauling in three of his four targets for 83 yards. He averaged 27.7 yards per reception and had a long catch of 52 yards on the afternoon... Quitoriano finishes the 2023 campaign with seven receptions for 113 yards and two scores...

Offensive Line

Isaac Seumalo (2011-15) - Philadelphia Eagles - First String

-> In Philly's 22-16 win over New York, Seumalo made his 17th straight start of the season at right guard and saw 73 snaps... The Eagles are idle by virtue of being the one-seed...

Blake Brandel (2015-19) - Minnesota Vikings - Second String

-> In Minnesota's 29-13 win over Chicago, Brandel didn't see action... Minnesota hosts the Giants on Saturday...

Sean Harlow (2013-16) - Arizona Cardinals - Second String

-> Harlow saw two snaps on special teams in Arizona's 38-13 loss to San Francisco...

Defensive Line

Kyle Peko (2015) - Las Vegas Raiders - Second/Third String

-> In Las Vegas' 31-13 loss to Kansas City, Peko saw action on the defensive line (13 snaps) and special teams (eight)...

Linebackers

Isaiah Dunn (2017-20) - Seattle Seahawks - Reserve/Injured List

-> Dunn didn't see action in Seattle's 19-16 OT win over Los Angeles...

Punter

Johnny Hekker (2009-12) - Carolina Panthers - First String
