Frank Crum (born May 14, 2000) is an American professional football offensive tackle for the Denver Broncos of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Wyoming.
Crum's father, Gary, was an all-conference player for the Wyoming Cowboys in the 1980s, while his grandfather, Earl, played for the team in 1940.[1] He grew up in Laramie, Wyoming, and attended Laramie High School, where he played football and basketball and was a first-team all-conference offensive lineman.[2] He was ranked a zero-star recruit and committed to play college football at Wyoming.[3]
Crum redshirted as a true freshman at Wyoming in 2018.[4] After playing in 12 games, mostly as a backup, in 2019, he started all six games in the COVID-19-affected 2020 season.[5] He started all 13 games in 2021 and was chosen honorable mention All-Mountain West Conference (MW).[2] In 2022, he was named third-team All-MW by Pro Football Focus.[6] He returned for a final season in 2023 and was named first-team all-conference.[7] He ended his collegiate career with 55 games played and 48 starts.[8] He played at the 2024 Hula Bowl and was invited to the NFL Scouting Combine, where he had the second-fastest 40-yard dash among offensive linemen.[9] [10] [11]
After going unselected in the 2024 NFL draft, Crum was signed by the Denver Broncos as an undrafted free agent.[12] [13] He was also selected by the Birmingham Stallions as the eighth overall selection in the 2024 UFL draft on July 17.[14]
