60 Days to Purdue Football: Eric Swingler

Today we have a hard working walk-on that appeared to be ready to contribute in 2016, only to fall victim to the Purdue ACL curse in the spring.

Munster, IN (Munster HS)

6'5", 305 pounds

Offensive Line

2016 Projection: Out due to injury

Hailing from the land of three Floyds Brewing, Eric Swingler joined the team before the 2014 season as a walk-on. He is blessed with great size for a walk-on, however, at 6'5" and around 300 pounds. He saw a small amount of action last season, mostly against Indiana State, but had made great strides in the offseason.
