With the college football season officially wrapped up, college football fans or fans of football in general are now completely entrenching themselves in the NFL.

The games are set to begin on Saturday afternoon as the Clevland Browns and the Houston Texans. In total, there will be six games taking place from Saturday all the way through Monday, and depending on the weather for a few of them there may be an even more packed slate on Monday as the Steelers-Bills game was pushed back from Sunday to Monday. 

The Texas Longhorns will have their fair share of representatives scattered throughout the league looking to help their team advance to the next round. In total, they will have 12 active players, and three players in Tarik Black (Ravens), Hassan Ridgeway (Eagles), and DeMarvion Overshown (Cowboys) who are a part of an organization, but are either on practice squads or injured.
