[edit] College
For more than 50 years, former Redskin Jim Ricca held the distinction of being the last Georgetown University graduate to play in the NFL. The promotion of Buzbee from the Washington Redskins practice squad to the active roster on December 19, 2007 ended the 51-year drought of Hoyas in the league. Ricca played for Georgetown from 1947 to 1949.[1]
