Mark Hodge Murphy (born July 13, 1955) is the current President & Chief Executive Officer of the Green Bay Packers, an American Football franchise competing in the National Football League (NFL). Prior to that, he was the athletic director at Northwestern University and Colgate University. He also enjoyed a successful playing career in the NFL as a safety for the Washington Redskins for eight seasons from 1977 to 1984. ==Football player== Murphy played college football at Colgate University where he was also a member of the Theta Chi Fraternity. Before his NFL career and while playing for the Redskins he obtained an MBA from American University's Kogod School of Business in 1983. Murphy graduated with a law degree from the Georgetown University Law Center in 1988.〔 Murphy played in Super Bowl XVII and Super Bowl XVIII with the Washington Redskins. He played a key role in the Redskins 27–17 Super Bowl XVII win over the Miami Dolphins, recording a second half interception of Miami quarterback David Woodley's pass with the Dolphins on Washington's 37-yard line. Murphy's best season was in 1983, when he led the NFL with nine interceptions and returned them for 127 yards. He finished his eight season career with 27 interceptions and 282 return yards, along with six fumble recoveries for 22 returns yards, in 109 games. He also made the Pro Bowl in 1982 and 1983. Murphy was the Redskins representative to the NFL Players Association. He served on the bargaining committee in the players' strike that caused the cancellation of seven games during the 1982 season.〔 Many suspect that the Redskins' decision to release him after the 1983 season and the reluctance of any other team to sign him was retribution for his union activity. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mark Murphy (safety, born 1955)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
