}}Robert Michael "Bob" Sweiger (September 20, 1919 – November 1, 1975) was an American football back who played four seasons in the All-America Football Conference (AAFC) with the New York Yankees and Chicago Hornets. He was drafted by the New York Giants of the National Football League (NFL) in the third round of the 1942 NFL Draft. He played college football at the University of Minnesota and attended Central High School in Minneapolis, Minnesota.[1]

College career

Sweiger played fullback for the Minnesota Golden Gophers from 1939 to 1941.[2][3] He won the Bronko Nagurski Award, given to the team's most valuable player, in 1941.[4]

Professional career
