Do most football players go to college?

Answer 1

No, but right out of High School, they are too small and unskilled to play professionaly. Also, they need to college team to show how their skills match up to the rest of the best from around the world.

Answer 2

NFL - yes.

Almost all NFL players have attended a college, though not all graduate before they move up to the NFL.

Association Football (soccer) - No.

Very few professional soccer plays in Europe & South America have attended college. Most soccer players turn professional around the age of 18, so it's difficult to combine professional sports with a university education. Some do though (Steve Coppell is a famous example).

Answer 3

This list is way to long to actually make. If you can imagine a player before being eligible for the NFL must be removed from high school 3+ years, meaning practically all NFL players played at least 3 years of College Football, with a large majority playing 4-5 years (depending on redshirts). So they would more then likely have finished their academics receiving a degree
