NFL.com includes 5 former B1G stars on 2019 All-Rookie Team
Published:
Just over a week ago, 40 former B1G players heard their name called during the 2019 NFL Draft. Now, those stars will get to work on their professional careers.
With players arriving at their new homes, NFL.com predicted the 2019 All-Rookie Team, and the list contained five B1G names. Four of the players on the list were first-round selections while one other was a third-round pick.
Here’s the list of former B1G stars predicted to earn All-Rookie honors next season:
- T.J. Hockenson, TE — Detroit Lions (Iowa)
- Nick Bosa, EDGE — San Francisco 49ers (Ohio State)
- Devin Bush, LB — Pittsburgh Steelers (Michigan)
- David Long, CB — Los Angeles Rams (Michigan)
- Darnell Savage, S — Green Bay Packers (Maryland)
All five former B1G stars have incredibly high ceilings at the NFL level, hence why they were such high draft picks. It’ll be fun to see how all five of these players perform in 2019, and to see if any other B1G stars work their way onto this list.
