For the second consecutive year, Central Michigan football fans will have an opportunity to follow several of their favorite former Chippewas during the National Football League Playoffs. Just last year, four former Chippewas were part of the Pittsburgh and Green Bay squads that squared off in Super Bowl XLV in Dallas. That tied CMU with LSU, Ohio State and Tennessee for the most former players on active rosters for Super Bowl XLV. Green Bay's victory meant that three former Chippewas—Cullen Jenkins, Frank Zombo and Josh Gordy—each won Super Bowl rings. This season, four former Chippewas are part of teams that have qualified for the NFL postseason. Zombo returns with the Packers and is joined by Pittsburgh Steelers receiver/return specialist Antonio Brown, Houston Texans punter Brett Hartmann and San Francisco 49ers left tackle Joe Staley.
