TCU now has 32 players active in the NFL
FORT WORTH -- All five players from the 2020 TCU football team who pursued a professional career are headed to the National Football League.
For the 13th time in the last 16 seasons, the Horned Frogs had multiple draft picks as safety Trevon Moehrig was selected in the second round by the Las Vegas Raiders with linebacker Garret Wallow taken in the fifth round by the Houston Texans. Moehrig won the 2020 Paycom Jim Thorpe Award as the nation's top defensive back and was named to seven All-America teams. Wallow was a two-time First-Team All-Big 12 selection. His 295 career tackles rank fourth in the 20-season tenure of TCU Head Coach Gary Patterson.
Signing free-agent contracts were tight end Artayvious Lynn (Dallas Cowboys), safety Ar'Darius Washington (Baltimore Ravens) and tight end Pro Wells (Cincinnati Bengals).
Patterson has produced 55 NFL Draft picks while sending 134 players to NFL camps.
TCU has 32 active NFL players with 21 teams having at least one Horned Frog. The Green Bay Packers (Innis Gaines, Vernon Scott, Ty Summers), Houston Texans (Ross Blacklock, Marcus Cannon, Garret Wallow) and Indianapolis Colts (Darius Anderson, Ben Banogu, Joey Hunt) are tied for the most Horned Frogs on the roster with three.
