The names of four former South Carolina football players were called this past weekend in the 2020 NFL Draft. That list includes Javon Kinlaw (49ers), Bryan Edwards (Raiders), DJ Wonnum (Vikings), and TJ Brunson (Giants).

Following its conclusion, another handful of Gamecocks inked deals as undrafted free agents, making a total of nine players from last year’s team set to join professional rosters. Those five are running backs Rico Dowdle and Tavien Feaster, tight end Kyle Markway, offensive lineman Donell Stanley, and defensive tackle Kobe Smith.

Check out where each landed as they look to begin a career in the NFL.
