Bradie Ewing is in his first season as an assistant football strength and conditioning coach at Wisconsin in 2015, returning to his alma mater after retiring from a three-year career in the NFL.
The former walk-on earned a scholarship for his final two seasons with the Badgers and was named a team captain as a senior in 2011. UW's starting fullback, Ewing helped the Badgers win back-to-back Big Ten titles -- including their victory in the inaugural Big Ten Football Championship Game -- and make repeat appearances in the Rose Bowl in 2010 and 2011.
After earning an invitation to the Senior Bowl and being selected for the NFL Scouting Combine, Ewing was selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the fifth round of the 2012 NFL Draft. A three-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree, Ewing earned a bachelor's degree from UW in May of 2012.
Ewing and his wife, Rachel, have a son, Bennett.
