The story so far
No Maryland football alumni made it through NFL cutdown day. The annual NFL cutdown day saw many players released from teams. Among them, no alumni from the University of Maryland football program made it through.
The Ravens' decision to back second-year kicker Tyler Loop, despite the addition of Jake Moody, is one example of a team's choice to retain a player over a Maryland alum. The Raiders announced their practice squad additions, none of which were Maryland alumni. The Deseret News noted which players with Utah ties made it through cutdown day.
The next step for the released Maryland alums is to wait for practice squad or other team opportunities.
