John Joseph Krimm Jr. (born May 30, 1960) is an American former professional football player who was a defensive back in the National Football League (NFL).
Krimm was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and played scholastically at Bishop Watterson High School in Columbus, Ohio.[1] He played collegiately for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish,[2] where, as a senior, he was honored as a first-team All-American by Gannett News Service, the Newspaper Enterprise Association, and The Sporting News.[3][4][5]
Krimm graduated magna cum laude in Philosophy. He was the recipient of an NCAA post-graduate scholarship and spent a summer in Washington, D.C. as a Congressional Intern.[6]
Krimm was selected by the New Orleans Saints in the third-round of the 1982 NFL Draft,[7] and was active for all nine games during the shortened season.[8] He injured his knee during training camp in 1983, and spent the season on the injured reserve list.[9] He was released by the Saints during the 1984 preseason.[10]
The Los Angeles Raiders gave Krimm a tryout in 1985, but he pulled a hamstring in training camp and was released.[11][12]
