 Ripkowski gets drafted by Green Bay
|
Aaron Randal Ripkowski (born December 20, 1992) is an American football fullback for the Green Bay Packers of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Oklahoma. Ripkowski was drafted by the Packers in the sixth round of the 2015 NFL Draft.
Ripkowski attended the University of Oklahoma, where he played on the Oklahoma Sooners football team from 2011 to 2014. In four years at Oklahoma, he appeared in 47 games and started 17.
Ripkowski was selected in the sixth round (206th overall) by the Green Bay Packers in the 2015 NFL Draft. On May 8, 2015, he signed a contract with the Packers. In his rookie season, Ripkowski was the Packers' backup fullback behind veteran John Kuhn. He appeared in 15 games, finishing the year with nine tackles on special teams. Ripkowski recorded his first career NFL reception, an 18-yard catch and run from Aaron Rodgers against the Carolina Panthers in Week 9. His reception in Week 9 would be his only one of his rookie season.
In 2016, entering his second year, Ripkowski became the starting fullback after the Packers did not re-sign John Kuhn. As the 2016 season progressed, Ripkowski's role would evolve due to injuries to running backs Eddie Lacy and James Starks.
