Question
How long does a college football player have to stay in college or play to become eligible for the NFL?


Answer
Curtis, hello and Merry Christmas!



Two years, if he is not red shirted. That's why you see men going into the draft after their Sophomore year.
I have attached the NCAA website for you to explore the rules.

Hope you have the greatest of all years coming up!
