The 31 Georgia Bulldogs in the NFL playoffs

The NFL playoffs are finally here! In all, 31 former Georgia football players are on NFL rosters this postseason. This includes Georgia Bulldogs that are injured or on practice squads. Two former Georgia coaches will also play a key role in the NFL playoffs.

On Sunday, 11 former Georgia Bulldogs will face off in the Green Bay Packers at Philadelphia Eagles game. Both the Packers (five) and Eagles (six) have the most former Georgia Bulldogs on their respective rosters of any teams in the NFL.

Last year, former Georgia wide receiver Mecole Hardman made the game-winning play in the Super Bowl. Now, we’ll see what Georgia Bulldogs come up in the clutch this postseason.
