The 2021 NFL Season is officially here and we decided to take a look at all 32 NFL rosters to see how many NFL players were on the rosters that played at schools across the Sunshine State.

Our research indicated at least 217 players who played high school football in the Sunshine State stretching all the way from Pensacola to Key West will be on NFL opening-day rosters or on Reserve lists for their respective teams. Of the 217 players, they come from 128 programs across the state. 36 of 67 counties have at least one player represented on an NFL roster for opening day.

Both Bradenton IMG Academy and Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas are tied for having the most players on NFL rosters for opening day with each having 13. Plantation American Heritage follows up behind them with nice players, while Miami Northwestern has five players represented on NFL rosters.
