  The number of black college

players on opening day active and

practice rosters is down by three

from 45 to 42 from a year ago asthe 2014-15 NFL season kicks

off with Thursday's match up of

Super Bowl champion Seattle and

Green Bay.

A couple of veterans who

have spent their entire careers

with one team now have new

residences. Seven (7) rookies

made opening day rosters includ-

ing four on active rosters.

Former Howard standout

Antoine Bethea, who spent the

rst eight years of his career with

Indianapolis, is now in San Fran-

cisco. Former Grambling State 

defensive end Jason Hatcher 

who spent his rst eight years in

Dallas, is now with rival Wash-

ington.

  Amongst the rookies, for-

mer Tennessee State offensive

lineman Kadeem Edwards, a

fth round pick of Tampa Bay in

this year's draft, made the Buc-

caneers active roster. The rest of

the rookies on active rosters were

undrafted.

They include former Mor-

gan State offensive lineman

Karim Barton and former

Alabama State running back

Isaiah Crowell who both made

the Cleveland squad.

The fourth active roster

player is former Hampton 

(2007-10) offensive lineman

Michael Ola who earned a spot

on Chicago's active roster after

playing the last two years in the

Canadian Football League (CFL)

with the Montreal Alouettes.

  Nine former black college

players named to practice squads

included three rookies – former

Winston-Salem State  standout

linebacker Carlos Fields  who

was cut by Oakland and signed

by Tampa Bay, f ormerS. C. State 

safety Kimario McFadden was

also signed by Tampa Bay and

North Carolina A&T defensive

back Deji Olatoye  made the

Baltimore squad.

  Detroit defensive back

Rashean Mathis from Bethune-

Cookman and Indianapolis

linebacker Robert Mathis out

ofAlabama A&M, both entering

their 12th year in the league, arethe elder statesmen from black

colleges. Robert Mathis will miss

the rst four games of the season

serving a suspension after testing

positive for a banned substance.

Hampton, who tops the list

with six players in the league,

helped the MEAC (19) stay ahead

of the SWAC (10) in terms of the

conference with the most players

in the NFL. Alabama State was

next with four players.

Eight NFL teams (Dallas,

Detroit, New Orleans, Tampa Bay,

Washington, Cleveland, Tennes-

see and Baltimore) had the most

black college products (3) on their

rosters. The rosters include 12

defensive backs (S, CB or DB)

and 11 defensive linemen (DT or

DE, the top positions manned by

black college alums.

5 Winston-Salem State (0-0), ranked 17th in the

D2football.com poll, opens the season Saturday

(6 p.m.) hosting 18th-ranked UNC-Pembroke (0-

0). UNCP beat the Rams 25-21 last year to open

the season en route to a 9-2 nish that earned the

Braves their rst appearance in the playoffs.

  The UNCP contest was the only regular sea-

son game that WSSU QB Rudy Johnson did not

start last season. Johnson took the controls af-

ter that game and led the Rams to nine straight

wins and its third straight playoff berth. Johnson

is back to lead the Rams but the game will also

feature the debut of heralded WSSU quarterback

Phillip Sims who is expected to see playing time

behind him.

tionally ranked Coastal Carolina (1-0) at Aggie Sta-

dium.

Both teams are coming off big wins. A&T

rushed for 307 yards and ve TDs in humbling Al-

abama A&M 47-13 Saturday in the MEAC/SWAC

of offense in downing The Citadel, 31-16. Coastal

is ranked sixth in the FCS coaches poll and fth in

the Sports Network poll.

Two Virginia FCS games will match schools

looking for their rst wins as Norfolk State  (0-

1) hosts Liberty (0-1) at 4 p.m. and BCSP No,

Hampton lost a close game (41-28) at Old Do-

minion in Connell Maynor's debut leading the

Two PSAC teams host CIAA teams Satur-

day as Indiana (Pa.), ranked 23rd in the D2foot-

ball.com poll, takes on St. Augustine's at 12

noon and California (Pa.) faces Virginia State 

at 1 p.m.
