NDSU Football on Twitter
Former Bison quarterback Brock Jensen's Ottawa Redblacks won the Canadian Football League's Grey Cup, headlining the action for former North Dakota State football players in the professional ranks last week.
Jensen has now been a member of championship teams at the high school, college and professional levels. He finished the CFL season 29-of-43 passing for 330 yards and two touchdowns. Former NDSU receiver Ryan Smith ended the year with 53 catches for 488 yards for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
No FCS school has more active NFL players than North Dakota State. Eight former Bison are currently in the NFL – seven active and one on injured reserve – plus head coach Gus Bradley of the Jacksonville Jaguars.
