Timothy Alan Krumrie (born May 20, 1960) is a former American football nose tackle who played his entire National Football League career for the Cincinnati Bengals, from 1983 through 1994.
Krumrie was raised on a dairy farm outside of Mondovi, Wisconsin. He played football at Mondovi High School. Also a standout wrestler for the Buffaloes, Krumrie won the heavyweight state title in 1979, the last year all schools were combined in one division.
Each year since 2009, the Tim Krumrie Award is given to the outstanding high school senior defensive lineman in Wisconsin. The award is given by the Wisconsin Sports Network and WisSports.net.
Krumrie attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison, who recruited him as an inside linebacker but switched him to nose tackle. He led the Badgers in tackles all four years he played, and was a three-time All-Big Ten selection. He was the school's all-time leading tackler at the time of his graduation, and currently is third. He still holds the record for most solo tackles in a career at 276.
He was named defensive MVP of the Badgers' 1982 Independence Bowl win over Kansas State. A member of the Wisconsin wrestling team in 1979 and 1980, he finished fifth at the Big Ten Championships as a sophomore heavyweight.
Krumrie was enshrined in the University of Wisconsin Hall of Fame in 1999. He was inducted into the College football hall of fame in 2016.
Krumrie was chosen in the 10th round of the 1983 NFL Draft.
Krumrie was selected to the Pro Bowl twice, in 1987 and 1988, and led the Bengals to one Super Bowl appearance.
He finished his career with 34 sacks and 13 fumble recoveries for 35 return yards in 188 games. At the time of his retirement, his 34 sacks were the fourth highest in franchise history.
