Even though four teams were on their Bye for NFL Week 10, there were still plenty of South Jersey Alumni in action this past weekend.

The most notable names with the weekend off were Quarterback Joe Flacco (Audobon High School), and Running Back Isiah Pacheco (Vineland High School). Flacco has 11 Passing Touchdowns in his four starts with the Cincinnati Bengals; Pacheco is averaging 46.5 Total Yards per game for the Kansas City Chiefs this season.

For the 2025 NFL season, over 20 South Jersey High School Graduates have either landed on the Active 53-man Rosters or NFL Practice Squads.

These are the South Jersey Football Alumni who made an impact on NFL Week 10:
