Top NFL Player-Producing Utah High Schools
Heading into the 2026 NFL Draft, 200 players who attended high schools in Utah have played or are currently playing in the NFL.
That number may increase this fall when recently drafted players play their first games as pros.
Utah ranks No. 35 in the nation among high schools that produce NFL players, and is the sixth best in the West.
A total of 62 schools have produced at least one player.
Utah’s Highland High School has produced 10 NFL players, while Logan, Bingham, and East high schools have produced nine players each.
Several players from the high schools listed here played college football at schools and conferences in the West, including the Pac-12, Mountain West, Big West, Big Sky, and schools now in the Big Ten, Big 12, and ACC.
Here is a list of the state’s top pro-producing high schools with their respective ranks, player counts, and cities.

Super Eagles forward Ademola Lookman scored for Atletico Madrid in their 4-2 win over Espanyol on Saturday.
Lookman kept his place in the starting line-up after scoring against Club Brugge in the UEFA Champions League earlier in the week. Atletico Madrid came into the match as favourites but were made to work hard for the victory.
Espanyol took a surprise lead in the sixth minute through Jofre. Atletico responded 15 minutes later when Alexander Sørloth scored to level the game before half-time.
Four minutes after the restart, Álex Baena put Atletico ahead. Lookman then scored in the 58th minute after reacting quickly to a flick from Sørloth from a corner kick and guiding the ball into the net.
Sørloth later added a fourth goal in the 72nd minute, while Espanyol scored a late consolation goal. The match ended 4-2 in favour of Atletico Madrid.
Lookman played 60 minutes and delivered an impressive performance, continuing to grow in influence in Atletico’s attack.
According to Opta statistics, Lookman’s goal was his sixth goal contribution for Atletico Madrid, equalling the record held by former striker Luis Suárez for the best start by a player at the club.
Atletico Madrid will next face Marseille in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 playoff. Lookman will hope to continue his fine form and help his team secure a positive result.
Coventry City midfielder Frank Onyeka has explained what helped his team secure a 2-0 away win over West Bromwich Albion in the EFL Championship on Saturday.
The Super Eagles midfielder produced an impressive performance as Coventry ended their long wait for an away victory. Goals from Ephron Mason-Clark and Jack Rudoni sealed all three points at The Hawthorns. Onyeka was later named Man of the Match for his display.
Speaking after the game, Onyeka said he was happy with the result and praised the team’s effort.
“It’s really nice. We just keep going. It’s a great win away from home. It’s difficult, but it’s all about winning. I’m happy we got the win today and in the last game,” he said.
Onyeka added that Coventry’s defensive organisation was key to their success.
“We stayed in a middle block and didn’t give them anything. That helped us, especially in the second half,” he explained.
Coventry took the lead inside five minutes when Mason-Clark ran through and lobbed the goalkeeper after Onyeka helped win the ball in midfield. Rudoni doubled the lead in the 32nd minute with a powerful long-range shot into the top corner.
West Brom pushed forward in the second half and made several attacking changes, but Coventry’s defence stayed strong and kept a clean sheet. Goalkeeper Carl Rushworth had little to do as the visitors saw out the match comfortably.
Onyeka’s energy and physical presence helped break up West Brom’s attacks and keep Coventry organised. Under manager Frank Lampard, Coventry have now recorded back-to-back league wins and boosted their promotion hopes.

Rubi Rose posted the daring swimsuit look six days after going Instagram official with the Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver.
On Feb. 15, she posted a series of photos on Instagram stories that appeared to build curiosity before revealing Rice’s face.
The first picture featured chocolate-dipped strawberries arranged inside a heart-shaped box with the message, “BEST D**K EVER.”
In another picture, Rose showed off a pair of Giuseppe Zanotti Slim 2.0 stiletto sandals valued at $2,400, writing, “Daddy spoil his babyyyy.”
She then posted a shot holding a red Gucci wallet, and kept Rice’s face out of view.
In the final Instagram story, Rose locked lips with Rice beneath a large red heart-shaped arch.
After Rashee Rice and Rubi Rose went public with their relationship, Rice was sued over domestic violence claims made by his former girlfriend, Dacoda Jones.
Jones is also the mother of his two children.
The lawsuit was filed on Monday in Dallas County District Court.
Jones alleged in the lawsuit that Rice abused her many times between December 2023 and July 2025.
In the lawsuit, she claimed Rice “grabbed, choked, pushed, scratched, hit, and headbutted” her. She also said he threw objects at her and hit her with items.
She further alleged that he damaged property, punched walls, broke furniture, and once locked her out of the house at night.
She said in the filing that some of this happened while she was pregnant.
Jones claimed the abuse took place in their homes in Dallas and Missouri.
She is asking for more than $1 million in damages.
Rice has not publicly responded to the allegations.
On Jan. 8, Rashee Rice’s ex-girlfriend, Dacoda Jones, posted photos on Instagram that she said showed injuries from physical abuse.
Rashee Rice shares heartfelt birthday message for son with Dacoda Jones
Rashee Rice marked a milestone in his family in the beginning of 2026.
The Chiefs wide receiver posted a message on Instagram on Jan. 4 to celebrate his older son, Cassai’s fifth birthday.
“FIVE?! 5?! Come on now, man, slow down on me,” he wrote. “You got your dad feeling old! 😆 I’m so happy to see your growth. You’re so smart. You have the best energy in the world. You always keep a smile on your face, and you’re the best big brother a little bro could ask for. I love you so much, kid. You got Dada’s whole heart; today is your day.”
He added:
“I’m going to keep working as hard as I possibly can and never get discouraged for you and your little brother. I’ve got to make sure when times get hard as you grow up that I’m continuing to lead by example and not preaching just to preach.”
Rashee Rice wrapped up his note, referring to Cassai as his “little soldier.”

Manchester United will hope to put the demons of November’s 1-0 defeat to 10-man Everton behind them on Monday when they face the Toffees at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Manchester United know they need to be looking to take three points from games against the likes of Everton if they’re to make a return to Champions League football.
While this season has produced plenty of highs with wins against Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool, there have been far too many dropped points against teams you would fancy United to beat. All of the bottom six teams in the Premier League have taken at least a point off United this season.
Everton have enjoyed a solid campaign but their home form of late has been dire. They haven’t won at their new stadium in over two months and have won just four league games at the Hill Dickinson Stadium all season. Monday night represents a great opportunity for United to strengthen their push for a place in next season’s Champions League.

Pundits have had their say on who they think will win Monday’s clash. This is what they think:
Chris Sutton
“Manchester United lost at home to Everton in November despite the Toffees going down to 10 men in the 13th minute, when Idrissa Gueye was sent off for striking his teammate Michael Keane,” Sutton told BBC Sport.
“Ruben Amorim’s United just could not find a way of breaking Everton down that night, but there is a very different feel about them now Michael Carrick is in charge. They needed a stoppage-time equaliser to get a point at West Ham last time out but they seem much more confident and have been playing well.
FOLLOW OUR MAN UNITED FACEBOOK PAGE! Latest news and analysis via the MEN’s Manchester United Facebook page.
“This will be a tough game for them but, as I’ve mentioned previously, Everton have picked up more points on the road this season than they have done at home. That’s another reason why I fancy United to get something here, and stop David Moyes doing the double over his former club.”
Prediction: Everton 1-1 United.
Paul Merson
“The pressure will be on Manchester United because they are playing after Chelsea and Liverpool this weekend,” Merson told Sportskeeda. “I don’t think Everton are great at home, so at least that’s an advantage for United. Everton have not won in their last five home games in the league.

“I like how Manchester United did not give up against West Ham and got that late draw. Michael Carrick took a chance to try and get back in the game. He gambled like Sir Alex Ferguson would have and they got the draw. I liked that about him.
“Manchester United will create chances in this game and I fully expect them to score enough to get the win over Everton.”
Prediction: Everton 1-2 United
Harry Redknapp
“Obviously, Everton went to Old Trafford and won with 10 men, but this will have a different feel to it, ” Redknapp told BetVictor. “Everton have been better on the road than at home of late, I’m not quite sure why! It almost feels like they need a signature, big win at the new ground to really kickstart this era at the club – this could be it.
“United drew with West Ham and the fella might never get his haircut at this rate. Ignoring all that though, that wasn’t a bad result and Michael Carrick would absolutely have taken 13 points from 15 when he got appointed.
“I’m leaning towards the draw in this one but I’m not quite sure what to expect.
“One to watch – I do think we’re beginning to see more of the best of Sesko, I loved that finish against West Ham.”
Prediction: Draw

India captain Suryakumar Yadav revealed that the team went with the same playing XI for the Super 8 game against South Africa on Sunday, which meant vice-captain Axar Patel was left out again, with Washington Sundar keeping his spot. After losing the toss, Surya admitted he wanted to bat first but accepted the toss result, calling Axar’s omission a tough call.
“I was actually looking to bat first, but it’s okay, and we’re happy to bowl first. It’s very harsh on Axar Patel, but we’re going with the same team – just a tactical decision, so no changes from the last game,” he said at the toss. The decision sparked strong reactions on social media, with many fans questioning Axar’s exclusion.“Can someone tell me, why Axar Patel is dropped with his OG T2OI performances?” One fan wrote on X.“I have another question, can somebody tell me why Washington Sundar is not bowling to David Miller, if he was selected over Axar with lefties excuse?Does anything make sense under Gambhir?”Similar sentiments among fans over the Axar Patel omission call followed.In the match, South Africa had a shaky start after opting to bat. Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh struck early, reducing them to 20/3 in just four overs. However, David Miller and Dewald Brevis staged a strong comeback, attacking India’s bowlers and shifting the momentum.Miller took on Varun Chakravarthy and Arshdeep Singh with powerful boundaries, while Brevis joined in with aggressive shots against Washington Sundar and others. The pair added quick runs and pushed the scoring rate up, helping South Africa recover to 84/3 at the halfway stage. Nevertheless, South Africa posted a strong total of 187/7 in their 20 overs after choosing to bat against India. After losing early wickets, Miller (63 off 35) and Brevis (45 off 29) led a crucial recovery, while Stubbs (44* off 24) provided a late surge. Bumrah was the standout bowler with 3/15, supported by Arshdeep’s 2/28, but India still face a challenging chase.

American Taylor Heise, who assisted on Keller’s goal, told Fox News Digital in a recent interview it was a full-circle moment for her coach.
“I saw the video yesterday (Friday), and it kind of just depicts him pretty well,” she said. “He’s an emotional guy, but he coached a lot of men’s teams and this is kind of his first women’s gig and we’ve taken him in with grace these past four years and I think he’s done wonders for this group and definitely an honor for me because the last Olympics, I got cut. He’s the first coach that gave me that chance back. He knows I’m very grateful for that. I tell him that every day.

“We hadn’t been able to really chat with him after. We had a lot of media and everything, but we’re grateful for him. He’s a guy that deserves the world because he believed in all of us and gave all these young girls a chance to show up and I think he picked the right 23 girls to be here.”
Wroblewski played in the ECHL and the American Hockey League (AHL) and coached for the Team USA Developmental Program and the AHL’s Ontario Reign before taking over the Olympic women’s team in 2022.
Heise, who will continue to play in the Professional Women’s Hockey League for the Minnesota Frost, is now something that only a few can become – a gold medalist.

Oscar De La Hoya reacts to Floyd Mayweather’s return to pro boxing: “I might want the rematch”
Oscar De La Hoya has weighed in on Floyd Mayweather revealing shock plans to stage a professional boxing comeback.
It was announced this weekend that Mayweather is set to end his retirement and make a return to professional boxing later this year.
He will first take part in an exhibition against fellow boxing legend Mike Tyson, which is reported to be in April in the Congo, before then turning his attention to once again competing professionally.
Mayweather retired in 2017 so it will be nearly a decade since he has fought as a professional, though he has taken part in a number of exhibitions since then.
One man that he famously fought was De La Hoya back in May 2007, claiming a split decision win over ‘The Golden Boy’ to win the WBC light middleweight title.
Speaking to FightHype, De La Hoya first shared his thoughts on Mayweather returning.
“I’m excited for him. I heard he’s having an exhibition with Mike Tyson. Then he’s coming out of retirement to fight professional. It’s very interesting.”
De La Hoya was then asked if he would come out of retirement to face Mayweather again, and refused to rule it out.
“Don’t do this to me, I know I look good but don’t do this to me. I might want it [the rematch].”
De La Hoya fought on just two further occasions after the loss to Mayweather, with his final bout coming in December 2008 when he was beaten by Manny Pacquiao, so it seems unlikely the 53-year-old would return, even for an enticing battle against his former foe.

Round: First (Round of 32)
Category: ATP 500

Felix Auger-Aliassime vs Zhang Zhizhen preview
Last year’s runner-up and top seed, Felix Auger-Aliassime, will take on Zhang Zhizhen in the opening round of the Dubai Tennis Championships. Whoever wins the match will take on either Tunisian Moez Echargui or a qualifier/lucky loser in the second round of the ATP 500 event.
Auger-Aliassime enjoyed an impressive 2025 season, but his 2026 season got off to a rocky start. After winning just one of his two singles matches at the United Cup and retiring from his Australian Open first-round clash, the Canadian won the Open Occitanie in Montpellier and followed it up by reaching the final of the ABN AMRO Open in Rotterdam, where he lost to Alex de Minaur.
Zhang Zhizhen has won three out of six matches so far in the 2026 season, with his most notable victory coming against Zizou Bergs at the United Cup. The Chinese, who was ranked 422 places below the Belgian at the time, won 6-7(2), 7-6(3), 7-5.
Before Dubai, Zhang last competed at the Qatar Open, getting a place in the main draw through protected ranking. The Chinese beat Roberto Carballes Baena 6-4, 6-4 in the opening round before losing 3-6, 2-6 to sixth seed and eventual semifinalist Jakub Mensik in the second round.
Felix Auger-Aliassime vs Zhang Zhizhen head-to-head
The head-to-head between the two is currently tied at 1-1, with Auger-Aliassime winning their most recent encounter 6-4. 6-4, which came during the United Cup earlier this year.
Felix Auger-Aliassime vs Zhang Zhizhen odds
Odds will be updated when available.
Felix Auger-Aliassime vs Zhang Zhizhen prediction
Auger-Aliassime will enter the match as the overwhelming favorite to win, given his form over the past 15 months. The Canadian has reached the final in his two tournaments and has a good chance of doing so this time around as well. That said, Zhang has done well in his matches so far in 2026, beating several higher-ranked players, as his ranking rose from 464 to 319.
Auger-Aliassime is an effective server and produced 35 aces from five matches in Rotterdam. The 25-year-old doesn’t shy away from playing his shots and his aggression will no doubt make things difficult for Zhang.
The 29-year-old amassed 12 aces from his two matches in Doha and will rely heavily on his service games while looking for a decisive break. Auger-Aliassime has often produced unforced errors, so Zhang will have to find a balanced approach if he is to make things difficult for the World No. 7.
While the Chinese has produced some good moments so far this season, Auger-Aliassime could well be too much for him and he should be able to book his place in the second round of the Dubai Tennis Championships.
Pick: Auger-Aliassime to win in straight sets.
Felix Auger-Aliassime vs Zhang Zhizhen betting tips
Tip 1: Auger-Aliassime to serve over ten aces
Tip 2: Auger-Aliassime to lose less than five games
