Looks like the criteria is not being on the active regular season roster. I can see this list getting extremely large. Card companies start producing cards after the Draft; using training camp photos. Since team rosters start at 90 players and then are cut to 53 for the regular season, many of those newly drafted players end up being cut. Ernie Davis, Eric Crouch, Jason White Demetrius Davis, Sam Manuel, Jim Finn, Tevita Ofahengaue, Ryan Hoag, Kevin McMahan, Timothy Toone, Gerald Christian

John Henry Johnson never actually played for the Cleveland Browns. After the 1956 season, the San Francisco 49ers traded him to the Detroit Lions for fullback Bill Bowman and defensive back Bill Stits. Ironically, the Lions defeated the Browns in the 1957 NFL Championship Game. | ||

Jeff Graham never played a game for the Atlanta Falcons Also a note as to the Jesse Lumsden appearance on the list, he also never played for "Ontario University", since it doesn't exist. McMaster University in Hamiton, Ontario is his actual alma mater. | ||
Love this list! Gotta add my guy Barry Foster. https://www.tcdb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/3615/cid/890579/1995-Topps-449-Barry-Foster Traded by the Steelers to Carolina in their first year of 1995, but failed the physical in training camp and was cut. | ||
One of my prized possessions is the 1966 Philly set, one of the greatest every made. It includes two guys who never made it for the Falcons, Larry Benz and Frank Lasky. ******** I looked up Ben Cowins, but he has only college card and none with the pros. He was at training camp with the '79 Eagles ... someone pointed out Cowins' Cadillac in the parking lot to coach Dick Vermiel, who replied, "I hope it's paid for." | ||
1976 expansion draft guys who never made the team (Topps set) - Seattle - Joe Owens Tampa Bay - Ira Gordon, Harold Hart, Durwood Keeton, and Larry Ely ****** 1968 expansion draft guys who never played for the Bengals (Topps set) - Chris Burford, Dick Van Raaphorst, and Lonnie Wright | ||
1967 expansion draftees who fortunately never played for the Saints (Philly set) - Charley Bradshaw, Paul Hornung, John Morrow and Bob Scholtz *********** 1966 expansion draftees who never played for the Dolphins (Topps set) - Jack Spikes and Eddie Wilson | ||
