...Along with offensive lineman Chris Niland getting picked up off waivers by the Detroit Lions, UMass now boasts 10 former players in the league.
John Griffin and Jeromy Miles are with Cincinnati, James Ihedigbo and Vladimir Ducasse are with the Jets, Victor Cruz plays for the Giants, Chris Koepplin is in the Patriots' camp, Jeremy Horn is in his second year with the Chiefs and Jeremy Cain is playing his sixth season in the NFL, third with the Jaguars.
Update: A person familiar with the situation told the Associated Press late Thursday that the Jets will not re-sign Ihedigbo, a free agent safety, meaning the hard-hitting special teams ace will be playing elsewhere this season.
