Biography
Timmerman was born in Cherokee, Iowa.[2] He attended Washington High School in Cherokee, Iowa, and starred in football, basketball, and track. In football, he won All-Conference honors, and was an All-State Honorable Mention honoree. In track, he finished eighth in the state track meet on the 110 high hurdles as a senior. Timmerman graduated from Washington High School in Cherokee, Iowa, in 1989.
College career
Timmerman attended South Dakota State University for agribusiness and played college football at South Dakota State.[1][3] While there, he won two Division II All-America honors, was a two-time First-team Academic All-Conference pick, and as a senior, won the "Jim Langer Award", which is given to the nation's top Division II lineman.
Professional career
Green Bay Packers
Timmermann was drafted by the Green Bay Packers in the 7th round (230th overall) of the 1995 NFL Draft.[1] He played his first four seasons with the Green Bay Packers, making it to two Super Bowls and winning Super Bowl XXXI.
St. Louis Rams
After the 1998 season, Timmerman joined the Rams and won another Super Bowl ring in Super Bowl XXXIV. He also made it back to the Super Bowl with the Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI, losing to the New England Patriots. He became the first player in NFL history to ever win and lose a Super Bowl with one team, the Green Bay Packers, and win and lose a Super Bowl on another team, the St. Louis Rams. Timmerman was voted a Pro Bowl alternate four consecutive seasons (1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002) and in 2001 he was called into duty to play in the Pro Bowl due to injuries to other NFC guards. The Rams released Timmerman on February 27, 2007, and he officially retired following the 2007 season.
Life after football
Timmerman returned to his agricultural farming back in Cherokee and became the general manager for ICON Ag and Turf (a John Deere dealer).[1]
