Conner earned a 2009 College Football All-America Team selection and was one of the best fullback prospects in the 2010 NFL Draft. He was drafted in the fifth round by the New York Jets. He is nicknamed "The Terminator" because of the name he shares with the main character from the popular movie franchise and because of his aggressive blocking style against defensive players.[1] High school careerConner attended Lakota West High School in West Chester, Ohio, where he was a two-year starter at running back. He rushed for 1,100 yards and 14 touchdowns, averaging 6.3 yards per carry, as a senior. That year, Lakota West gained an 8–3 record and a berth in the state playoffs. Conner was subsequently named first-team All-Greater Miami Conference and honorable-mention All-Southwest Ohio. Unrecognized as a prospect by the two major recruiting services, Rivals.com and Scout.com, Conner was not offered an athletic scholarship, although he received some recruiting attention from Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia and Illinois, among others. He eventually chose to walk on with the Kentucky Wildcats. College careerAs a true freshman at Kentucky, Conner appeared in the first three games of the 2005 season on special teams before sustaining a season-ending injury. He received a medical redshirt and retained the year of eligibility. In his redshirt freshman season, Conner played in all 13 games, starting the first three at fullback. In his sophomore year he also played all 13 games, starting four. He scored four touchdowns and also made two tackles in kick coverage. By his junior year, Kentucky frequently opened with a fullback in the lineup, giving him 11 starts in 13 games. In a game versus Georgia, Conner set career highs with seven rushes for 26 yards. Prior to his senior season, Conner was named the "best blocking back" in the Southeastern Conference in the Birmingham News 2009 preseason edition. After a solid performance throughout the season, Conner earned All-American honors by Pro Football Weekly, which places an extra premium on talent and draft value in the selection process.[2] Professional career2010 NFL Draft{{nfl predraft| height ft = 5 | height in = 11⅛ | weight = 246 | dash = 4.64 | ten split = 1.56 | twenty split = 2.60 | shuttle = 4.32 | cone drill = 7.15 | vertical = 35 | broad ft = 9 | broad in = 3 | bench = 24 | wonderlic = | arm span = 32 | hand span = 8½ | note = All values from NFL Combine[3][4] }} Considered one of the best fullbacks available in the 2010 NFL Draft, Conner was selected in the fifth round (139th overall) by the New York Jets.[1] New York Jets{{quote|He does all the things that NFL teams ask their fullbacks to do. He blocks. He catches the ball. And when you need him to make a carry in short yardage, he almost always picks up first downs. He's going to have a long career in the league.|UK offensive head coach Joker Phillips[5]}}In 2012, Conner struggled with an MCL sprain and hamstring injury, and was released by the Jets on October 17.[6] Cincinnati BengalsConner was signed by the Cincinnati Bengals on December 15, 2012, after the team placed fullback Chris Pressley on the injured reserve list. Conner was released by the Bengals on August 31, 2013. In an episode of Hard Knocks, Bengals coaches stated that though Conner was the best Fullback on the roster, they were keeping Orson Charles due to his special teams play, even going as far as showing Charles game film of Conner after the decision.[7] New York GiantsAfter working out with the Buffalo Bills, Conner was signed to a two-year contract by the New York Giants on September 25, 2013, replacing Henry Hynoski, who suffered a fractured shoulder in Week 3 of the regular season.[8] Second stint with the New York JetsConner was re-signed by the New York Jets on September 30, 2014 after fullback Tommy Bohanon suffered a broken collarbone.[9] Buffalo BillsConner signed with the Buffalo Bills on May 13, 2015, reuniting with his former head coach Rex Ryan.[10] On September 4, 2015, he was released by the Bills.[11] References1. ^1 {{Citation |url=http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/prospectrankings/TSX/2010_FB |title=NFL Draft - 2010 FB Draft Prospects |work=CBSSports.com |accessdate=January 8, 2010 }} 2. ^{{Citation |url=http://www.amnews.com/stories/2009/12/22/uks.497996.sto |title=UK Football: Conner named All-American |last=Vaught |first=Larry |date=December 22, 2009 |newspaper=Danville Advocate }}{{dead link|date=November 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} 3. ^{{Citation |url=http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/john-conner?id=497168 |title=John Conner Combine Profile |work=NFL.com |accessdate=February 27, 2010 }}. 4. ^{{Citation |url=http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=76979&draftyear=2010&genpos=FB |title=John Conner Draft Profile |work=NFLDraftScout.com |date= }}. 5. ^{{Citation |url=http://www.kentucky.com/978/story/948193.html?storylink=omni_popular |title=Cats to try fullback Conner at tight end |first=Chip |last=Cosby |date=September 24, 2009 |newspaper=Lexington Herald-Leader }} 6. ^{{cite news|title=Jets reach injury settlement with John Conner |url=http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/2012/10/jets_reach_injury_settlement_w.html |work=The Star-Ledger |author=Vorkunov, Mike |date=October 17, 2012 |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/6BVia181q?url=http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/2012/10/jets_reach_injury_settlement_w.html |archivedate=October 18, 2012 |accessdate=October 18, 2012 |deadurl=yes |df= }} 7. ^http://www.bengals.com/news/transactions.html Retrieved August 31, 2013 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/Source-Giants-John-Conner-agree-to-twoyear-deal.html |title=Archived copy |accessdate=September 25, 2013 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130928002544/http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/Source-Giants-John-Conner-agree-to-twoyear-deal.html |archivedate=September 28, 2013 |df= }} Retrieved September 25, 2013 9. ^{{cite web|title=Jets re-sign John 'The Terminator' Conner to replace Tommy Bohanon, who goes on injured reserve |url=http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/2014/09/jets_re-sign_fullback_john_the_terminator_conner_to_replace_tommy_bohanon_league_source_confirms.html |publisher=NJ.com |author=Slater, Darryl |date=September 30, 2014 |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/6SzOurRro?url=http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/2014/09/jets_re-sign_fullback_john_the_terminator_conner_to_replace_tommy_bohanon_league_source_confirms.html |archivedate=October 1, 2014 |accessdate=September 30, 2014 |deadurl=yes |df= }} 10. ^{{cite web|title=Free agent FB John Conner signs with Bills |url=http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1/Free-agent-FB-John-Conner-signs-with-Bills/bdba36d1-7279-484a-ae0a-a1891da9b142 |publisher=Buffalo Bills |author=Brown, Chris |date=May 13, 2015 |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/6YVaHPu9K?url=http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1/Free-agent-FB-John-Conner-signs-with-Bills/bdba36d1-7279-484a-ae0a-a1891da9b142 |archivedate=May 14, 2015 |accessdate=May 13, 2015 |deadurl=yes |df= }} 11. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1/Leodis-McKelvin-to-ReserveNFI-as-Bills-release-16/df61b241-ef1d-456a-a22a-cd06ea2c309f |title=Leodis McKelvin to Reserve/NFI as Bills release 16 |last=Brown |first=Chris |date=September 4, 2015 |website=BuffaloBills.com |accessdate=September 14, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150917072835/http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1/Leodis-McKelvin-to-ReserveNFI-as-Bills-release-16/df61b241-ef1d-456a-a22a-cd06ea2c309f# |archive-date=September 17, 2015 |dead-url=yes |df= }} External links
