Ted Thompson becomes the 10th football general manager in team history, but only the fourth to serve exclusively from the front office, joining Verne Lewellen (1954-58), Vince Lombardi (1968) and Ron Wolf (1992-2001).

A three-year starter at linebacker for Southern Methodist University, Thompson gained Academic All-Southwest Conference honors and graduated with a bachelor's degree in business administration.

Born Jan. 17, 1953, in Atlanta, Texas, Thompson operated his own investment business in Houston before Wolf brought him to Green Bay in 1992.
