Mark Murphy recently retired as president and CEO of the Green Bay Packers after 18 years of leading the storied National Football League team.

During his tenure, the Packers were highly successful on the field, winning Super Bowl XLV in 2011, making the playoffs eight straight seasons from 2009 to 2016, and quarterback Aaron Rodgers winning four Most Valuable Player Awards.

Off the field, Murphy oversaw two separate stock sales in 2011 and 2021 that funded two renovations of Lambeau Field. He also led the effort to purchase land adjacent to Lambeau Field and redevelop it into the Titletown District, a mixed-use development that supports tourism and provides year-around activities to local residents.

Prior to joining the Packers, he served a combined 16 years as director of athletics at Northwestern University (2003-07) and Colgate University (1992-2003). He enjoyed an eight-year NFL playing career with the Washington Redskins and served as co-captain from 1980-84, including the Super Bowl title team of 1982. He earned All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors in 1983 after leading the NFL with nine interceptions.

Murphy is believed to be the only person to earn a Super Bowl ring as a player and as a team's chief executive.
