Tejhuan Palmer and Nathan Latu, two Snow College football alumni, have landed themselves on NFL rosters following the 2024 NFL draft over the weekend. 
 
Palmer was selected in the sixth round (pick 191 overall) by the Arizona Cardinals.  Palmer entered the NFL draft out of the University of Alabama at Birmingham where he spent the previous three seasons.  He played in 36 games for the Blazers and caught a total of 80 passes for 1,379 yards and nine touchdowns.  He caught 47 passes for 858 yards and seven touchdowns as a senior last season.
 
Palmer, a native of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, played in eight games for the Badgers during the 2020 season.  He caught 32 passes for 697 yards and 11 touchdowns and helped the Badgers to an 8-1 overall record.  He caught four passes for 131 yards and a touchdown in the Badgers 29-27 loss against Hutchinson College in the NJCAA National Championship.
 
Palmer will now fight for a spot on an Arizona Cardinals team that went 4-13 during the 2023 season and finished in fourth place in the NFC West.  Palmer was the second of two wide receivers selected by the Cardinals during the draft.  Arizona selected Ohio State University standout Marvin Harrison Jr. with the fourth overall pick. 
 
Latu went undrafted but was signed as a free agent with the New Orleans Saints following the conclusion of the draft.  Latu spent the previous three seasons at Oklahoma State University.  He played in 31 games for the Cowboys where he recorded 46 tackles including seven sacks and forced fumble.  He played in all 14 games for OSU during his senior season where he recorded 31 tackles and three sacks for a team that went 10-4 overall and 7-2 in the Big 12.
 
Latu, a native of Salt Lake City, Utah, played in six games for the Badgers during the 2019 season.  He recorded 21 total tackles including 4.5 sacks and three forced fumbles for a team that went 5-3 overall.  He recorded six tackles and a sack while forcing two fumbles in the Badgers' 39-23 victory against ASA College of Miami Oct. 12, 2019.
 
The Saints, who finished the 2023 season with a 9-8 overall record and a second-place finish in the NFC South, agreed to terms with 16 undrafted free agents including one other defensive end and one defensive tackle.
