See the final four NFL playoff QBs in high school

The NFL's version of the Final 4 is locked and to little surprise, the states most represented by former high school players in the games are: Texas, Florida, California and Georgia.

The leader is Florida, with 29 players off the four rosters who played high school football in the Sunshine State. California is next with 23, followed by Texas (22) and Georgia (15).

Four high schools boast two alumni among the four rosters. They are:



Carrollton (Ga.) — Atlanta linebacker Josh Harris and New England cornerback Jonathan Jones.

De La Salle (Concord, Calif.) — Atlanta running back Terron Ward and tight end Austin Hooper.

Northwestern (Miami) — Pittsburgh receiver Eli Rogers and cornerback Artie Burns.

St. Thomas Aquinas (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) — New England running back James White and Pittsburgh tackle Marcus Gilbert.
