The NFL season is set to kickoff Wednesday night and 25 former Badgers are on NFL rosters.
The lone UW alum in the opener that features the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Giants is tight end Travis Beckum, who starts the season on the PUP list for New York.
Keep tabs on Badgers in the NFL all year long with the help of the Wisconsin Athletic Department.
The Wisconsin offense looked fairly efficient against Northern Iowa last Saturday, but it was not the showing that Badgers’ fans have become accustomed to in non-conference contests. Brian Bennett of espn.com talks about how UW looks to improve against Oregon State.
Former defensive tackle Jordan Kahout made headlines in the offseason when he announced that health related issues caused, in part, by migraine headaches would cut his playing career short.
Tom Mulhern of the Wisconsin State Journal catches up with Kahout, who has since rejoined the team as a student assistant coach.
The 2012 Capital One All-America Mascot competition is underway. There will be a familiar face among the 16 competitors. Wisconsin’s own Buck Badger will compete in the contest which will last for the next three months.
