How many former Boston College football players are in the NFL? The number changes on a regular basis, and Boston College Eagles On SI regularly updates its Eagles in the NFL Database to provide the latest on who is listed on NFL rosters, by team and by position.

There is one one time of the year, though, when there's an official answer to that question. Only on opening weekend, when the rosters are locked for Week 1, does the NFL do an official breakdown of the active players (practice squads and players on injury lists do not count toward the active roster).

Note: Cutdown day, when all NFL iteams must be down to 53 players on their official roster, is Tuesday. Teams can subsequenlty add players to the practice roster.
