Texas A&M has 41 former players on NFL rosters as the 2026 season opens, led by Myles Garrett, Mike Evans, Von Miller and De’Von Achane.
Texas A&M football will be well represented when the 2026 NFL season kicks off, with 41 former Aggies currently attached to NFL rosters across the league.
The group stretches from established stars to rookies just beginning their professional careers, giving Texas A&M one of the deeper NFL pipelines in college football.
At the top of the list are some of the biggest names the program has produced.
Myles Garrett enters the season with the Los Angeles Rams after a major offseason move from Cleveland. Mike Evans is beginning a new chapter with the San Francisco 49ers after spending his entire previous NFL career in Tampa Bay.
Von Miller is back in Texas with the Dallas Cowboys, while De’Von Achane remains one of the league’s most explosive offensive weapons with the Miami Dolphins.
Texas A&M’s presence isn’t limited to veterans.
The Aggies had 10 players selected in the 2026 NFL Draft, including first-round wide receiver KC Concepcion, who begins his career with the Cleveland Browns.
Offensive lineman Chase Bisontis landed with Arizona, defensive lineman Cashius Howell went to Cincinnati and tight end Nate Boerkircher joined Jacksonville.
Other recent Aggies making the jump include Tyler Onyedim with Denver, Albert Regis and Ar’maj Reed-Adamswith Buffalo, Will Lee III with Carolina, Dametrious Crownover with New England and Trey Zuhn III with Las Vegas.
There’s also significant defensive depth spread throughout the league.
Nnamdi Madubuike remains a centerpiece in Baltimore, Edgerrin Cooper is with Green Bay, Shemar Stewart and McKinnley Jackson are both in Cincinnati, and Shemar Turner is with Chicago.
Several former Aggies are beginning the season on reserve lists rather than active rosters. Bisontis is on injured reserve with Arizona, while Nic Scourton is also on injured reserve with Carolina. Tre Watson is currently on Miami’s practice squad.
The sheer number matters for Texas A&M’s recruiting pitch.
When prospects arrive in College Station, the program can point to a growing list of players who’ve successfully moved from the SEC to the NFL.
With 41 former Aggies spread across professional rosters entering 2026, that pipeline isn’t theoretical anymore.
It’s visible every Sunday.
