September quickly came and went, October went by in a flash, Daylight Savings Time wrecked my Monday daily feel. Though it always comes slowly, it leaves almost too fast. We are in the final 20% or so of college football and are now 50% of the way through the NFL season. 

Oklahoma State’s lack of success hasn’t done Cowboy fans any favors as each loss has seemingly blended weeks together. Though, speeding up this college football season could be a blessing in disguise. However, if your favorite NFL team is doing well, you could be asking yourself “we’re already halfway through?”

 The midway mark in the NFL and the three-quarter mark in college football were highlighted by Disney/ESPN and Google/YouTube’s ongoing contract battle this week. Many college football fans, who are/were YouTube TV subscribers, missed out on the best that college football had to offer this past weekend. That miss extended to the Monday Night Football Game, between the Arizona Cardinals and the Dallas Cowboys.

If you’re one those YT subscribers or aren’t throwing the cash to RedZone or NFL Ticket, let’s get you caught on how former Oklahoma State turned NFL players are doing midway through the 2025-2026 NFL Season.

Chicago Bears – 

Linebacker – Amen Ogbongbemiga – Injured Reserve

Detroit Lions – 

Linebacker – Malcolm Rodriguez – Injured Reserve 

Defensive End – Tyler Lacy – Active 

Green Bay Packers – 

Defensive End – Collin Oliver – Physically Unable To Perform List

Offensive Guard/Tackle – Dalton Cooper – Practice Squad

Arizona Cardinals – 

Defensive End – Anthony Goodlow – Practice Squad

Denver Broncos – 

Center – Joe Michalski – Practice Squad

 Indianapolis Colts –

Offensive Guard - Josh Sills – Practice Squad

Los Angeles Rams – 

Cornerback – A.J. Green – Practice Squad

Wide Receiver – Brennan Presley – Practice Squad 

Baltimore Ravens -

Wide Receiver – Tylan Wallace – Punt Returner – 2nd String WR - Wallace has shown punt returning flashes of brilliance as well has a few clutch catches. He’s no Justin Jefferson, but he contributes well to the Ravens offense when called upon.

Running Back – Justice Hill – Active- Hill is instrumental as a complimentary running back partner to lead back, Derrick Henry. Every so often, Hill will burst out and have a game that makes you wonder if he could be lead back on another team that doesn’t feature a back like Henry.

Carolina Panthers – 

Running Back – Chuba Hubbard – Active though sometimes injured, Hubbard is making the most of his Panther carries. Chuba provides even for fantasy football owners, where they’re not concerned whether or not you were good in college. He’s a good asset for the team from Charlotte.

To Cleveland Browns – 

Offensive Guard – Teven Jenkins – Active 

Jacksonville Jaguars – 

Defensive End – Emmanuel Ogbah – Active Long time quarterback sack threat.

Continues to give opponent QB’s a scare. 

Miami Dolphins – 

Running Back – Ollie Gordon II – Active

New York Giants – 

Cornerback – Korie Black – Active  

San Francisco 49’ers – 

Linebacker – Nick Martin

Pittsburgh Steelers – 

Quarterback – Mason Rudolph - Rudolph has been a great backup QB for the Steelers. I can’t imagine him hanging it up to sell insurance just yet. But it’s coming.

Running Back – Jaylen Warren - The former Utah State transfer won’t let the Cowboy faithful down. He’s damn near been a premier back and probably has a lot to share.
