Cincinnati Bengals offensive lineman Ted Karras is joining the executive committee of the NFL Players Association’s board of player representatives as vice president.
He will begin his two-year term immediately and fill the spot left vacant with the departure of Michael Thomas from the committee.
“I’ve been involved with the NFLPA for a long time and have seen the great work that guys like Michael Thomas and Austin Ekeler have done,” Karras said. “My biggest thing will be educating and informing our player population on not only what the union does, but the benefits and programming that have been created for players. I’m excited to get to work and help lead this union.”
Current members of the executive committee are Jalen Reeves-Maybin (president), Thomas Hennessy (treasurer), Ekeler, Oren Burks, Calais Campbell, Cameron Heyward, Case Keenum, Ryan Kelly, Brandon McManus and Thomas Morstead, who were elected to two-year terms in 2024.
Karras, who turned 32 on Saturday, is entering his 10th NFL season.
