A native of Copperas Cove, Texas, Griffin was the No. 2 pick in the 2012 NFL Draft and played seven years with three teams, including a 2012 Pro Bowl season that culminated with NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year.
Griffin was a two-time College Sports Communicators Academic All-America selection, a three-time Dean’s List selection and a 10-time Big 12 Conference academic honoree. Griffin graduated in 2010 with a bachelor’s degree in political science.
He and his wife Grete and children Reese Ann, Gloria, Gameye and Gia have been extremely active in their community, including through the RGIII Foundation, which is dedicated to helping disadvantaged children, military families and victims of domestic violence.
Griffin has become a leading voice in sports media following his playing career and enters his second college football season as lead color analyst for FOX Sports after previously working for ESPN/ABC and Netflix.
The Bears have inducted nine former greats into the College Football Hall of Fame, most recently QB Don Trull in 2013. Safety Thomas Everett, head coach Grant Teaff, linebacker Mike Singletary, end Larry Elkins, tackle Jim Ray Smith, guard Bill Glass, guard Barton Koch and head coach Morley Jennings all represent BU in the CFB Hall of Fame in Atlanta.
