The current NFL players from Europe

The NFL is considered the biggest football league in the world. As it is a league from the USA, it is only logical that the majority of players are US-Americans. Nevertheless, players from other countries around the world have been able to establish themselves over the years. 

Including some from Europe. And anyone who thinks that Europeans are just backups in the American-influenced league is wrong.  There have already been starters, first-round picks and even Hall of Famers.
