Ryan Swope enjoyed one of the best careers that a Texas A&M wide receiver has ever had from 2009-12. Swope was a two-time all-conference second team selection (2011, 2012) and helped the Aggies to four-straight bowl appearances, including victories in the 2011 Meineke Car Care Bowl and 2013 Cotton Bowl, as well as a share of the 2010 Big 12 South Championship.
Swope still holds the program’s career records for receiving yards (3,117), receptions (252) and 100-yard receiving games (14). In 2011, he caught the most balls in a single season by anyone in school history with 89, which produced the most yards in a season at the time for any Texas A&M wide out (1,207). He is also fourth on the all-time list with 24 receiving touchdowns.
On Oct. 15, 2011, Swope became just the fifth Aggie at the time to surpass the 200 receiving yards mark in a single game, catching 11 balls for 206 yards in a 55-28 rout of Baylor. In that game, he caught four touchdowns, which remains tied for the program record.
During the 2013 NFL Draft, Swope was selected in the sixth round by the Arizona Cardinals, becoming the first Aggie wide receiver taken in the NFL Draft in nearly 10 years.
Swope earned his bachelor’s degree from Texas A&M in university studies in 2013.
