Stutsman became the third OU linebacker drafted in the last six years (first since Brian Asamoah in 2022) and the 11th Brent Venables-coached Sooners linebacker selected in the draft. Bowman Jr. was the first Sooners defensive back drafted since safety Delarrin Turner-Yell in 2022.
This marked the 30th straight year and 55th time in the last 56 years OU had at least two players selected in the NFL Draft. It also marked the first time since 2004 the Sooners did not have an offensive player drafted.
