The 2017 NFL season officially kicks off tonight in Foxborough, so it seems like the perfect time to share who each state's favorite pro player is. These results were gathered by CableTV.com and Go.Frontier.com, who together, looked at the top 100 players in the league, and then determined the athletes on that list that were googled the most in each state within the past year. When it came to the NFL player who has garnered the most interest in the country overall, look no further than the Broncos longtime rival quarterback, Philip Rivers.
