Green Bay Packers

Putzier was drafted by the Green Bay Packers in the fourth round (88th overall) of the 1988 NFL Draft, and signed a three-year contract with the team.[3][4] He was cut at the end of training camp and heard the news from a friend before the team informed him.[5]

Pittsburgh Steelers

On September 7, 1988, Putzier was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers to a one-year contract.[4] He was cut the following day after failing a physical exam,[6] likely due to a broken foot suffered in training camp with the Packers.[5] He re-signed with the team on November 2, and played in five games during the latter portion of the season.[6]

Putzier was waived on July 28, 1989 after security personnel found two unloaded pistols at his training camp residence.[6]

San Francisco 49ers

Shortly after his release from the Steelers, Putzier signed with the San Francisco 49ers.[7]

On August 29, 1989, Putzier was suspended four games by the NFL for steroid usage.[8] He was reinstated by the league on September 26.[9] He played in twelve regular season games, but did not make the team's playoff roster and did not participate in Super Bowl XXIV, which the 49ers won.[10]

He was waived by the 49ers during final roster cuts on September 3, 1990.[11]

Denver Broncos

Putzier spent part of the 1991 training camp with the Denver Broncos before being cut.[12]

Montreal Machine (WLAF)

Putzier spent the 1991 season with the Montreal Machine of the World League of American Football.[13] He was drafted in the third round (26th overall) by the team.[14] He played with the team the following year, but then the league went on hiatus.[15]

London Monarchs (WLAF)

Putzier was drafted by the London Monarchs in the 1995 WLAF draft.[15]

Post-football life

After his football career ended, Putzier moved to Huntsville, Alabama, married, had children, divorced, and worked as a bouncer.[16][17] His Super Bowl XXIV ring was stolen when Putzier was shot trying to break up a 2008 fight in the parking lot of the apartment complex he was living in.[16] He was in the intensive care unit for three weeks after the shooting, including time spent in an induced coma and on a ventilator.[18] He died in Huntsville on April 25, 2018, at the age of 52.[19]
