Oklahoma has been an NFL pipeline throughout the program's history, boasting at least one player drafted into the NFL in every year but two since 1936.
The Sooners most recently produced back-to-back first-round selections with OTs Anton Harrison and Tyler Guyton , but have produced numerous successful players throughout every round of the draft.
Their NFL pipeline struck again with several tremendous performances in Week 2 of the NFL season. Who were some of the standout Sooners in the NFL this week?
Kyler Murray, QB, Arizona Cardinals
Kyler Murray decimated the Rams' defense on Sunday, passing for 266 yards and three touchdowns before getting benched in the second half of the Cardinals' 41-10 rout of LA.
The Rams couldn't bring Murray to the ground and Kyler made them pay for it, escaping and making LA's defense look like fools.
No single play describes his game in Week 2 better than this touchdown pass. Murray turns away from the play and celebrates the touchdown before the pass is even completed. Los Angeles couldn't stop him at all.
Tre Brown, CB, Seattle Seahawks
An unheralded defender over the last few seasons, Brown has been a quietly solid player for the Seahawks since they drafted him in 2020.
It looks like things are starting to click for him under new Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald.
Last week against Denver, Brown recorded a PBU working against the much-bigger Courtland Sutton, and he followed it up with a terrific game against New England in Week 2. Brown didn't allow a single catch and made a nice stop on an end-around to Ja'Lynn Polk.
Brown helped the Seahawks hold the Patriots to just 149 yards passing on the day.
Trent Williams, LT, San Francisco 49ers
The best left tackle in the game was at it again in Week 2 facing off against the Minnesota Vikings.
I don't even need to write about him. Just watch these clips.
Austin Seibert, K, Washington Commanders
Seibert has bounced around a few NFL teams since being drafted in 2019. He had arguably his best performance this week, leading the Commanders to a win over NFC East foe the New York Giants.
That's not an exaggeration. Washington didn't score a touchdown the entire game and still won. Seibert went 7/7 on his field goals, making them from 27, 45, 26, 27, 29, 33, and 30, including the game-winner.
To make matters even more fascinating, Seibert was just signed to the team on Tuesday. I think it's safe to say he might be sticking around for a bit in Washington after that game.
Wanya Morris, LT, Kansas City Chiefs
While Wanya Morris might not be the starting left tackle for Kansas City, he's still making plays for the Chiefs.
Morris caught a touchdown in Week 2 that helped the Chiefs eek out a win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
There's nothing better in football than big guy touchdowns. Shoutout to Kansas City for a great play in such a critical moment.
