NFL: Best colleges named after a city

Many American universities are named after their state, but there are some which bear the name of their city. Which of these "city" colleges had former players who were in the NFL on opening night in 2023? Just the name of the city is enough.

Thanks! I'd found the Texan college city, Temple, and didn't realise the team on the list were from elsewhere. Have removed it now.

Great knowledge, well noticed. So, it turns out that list in the link includes some colleges with only 1 player - but other colleges have been missed out. So I've removed Akron and Troy. Now it's colleges with at least 2 players from the list.
