Ryan Philip Kuehl (born January 18, 1972) is a former American football long snapper in the National Football League (NFL).
Early years
Kuehl attended Walt Whitman High School in Bethesda, Maryland, where he was a prep All-American selection as a senior. One of Kuehl's notable high school achievements was scoring the Vikings' only playoff touchdown in nearly 20 years on a late game scoring strike from quarterback Andy Eichberg in the 1988 MD state playoff loss to the Randallstown Rams. It was the Vikings' only score that day.[1]
Kuehl was a four-year letterman at the University of Virginia and was named second-team All-ACC at defensive tackle (1994).[2]
NFL career
- 1995: signed as free agent by the San Francisco 49ers ... released in 1996
- 1996: signed as free agent by the Washington Redskins ... waived 1998
- 1999: signed as free agent by the Cleveland Browns
- 2003: signed as unrestricted free agent by the New York Giants
Kuehl retired from the NFL after a ruptured Achilles' tendon during the 2007 preseason. Although he didn't play during the season, he earned a ring as a member of the Super Bowl XLII winning team.
Post-NFL career
After football, Kuehl earned an MBA from American University and joined Under Armour in 2009. As vice president of sports marketing in sponsorships, he gave Jordan Spieth a ten-year deal with the company in 2015, replacing the company's original four-year contract from 2013.[3]
Kuehl left Under Armour in 2018.[4]
