High school career

Originally, Ingold committed to Northern Illinois to play quarterback, but later accepted a scholarship from Wisconsin as an undecided athlete.[1] He was named the Associated Press Wisconsin Player of the Year and the Gatorade Wisconsin Player of the Year his senior year at Bay Port High School as a dual-threat quarterback.[2]

College career

Over his career at Wisconsin, Ingold started eleven games, primarily at fullback his senior year.[2] He was originally a linebacker before moving to running back due to an injury to Corey Clement and later moving to fullback before his sophomore season, spending two years splitting snaps with Austin Ramesh before taking over primary duties his senior season.[3] Ingold was primarily used in short-yardage situations such as goal line scenarios, scoring a high touchdown-to-carry ratio.[4]

After his senior season, Ingold was invited to the 2019 Senior Bowl.[3] He was also the only true fullback invited to the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine.[5] His combine numbers included a 4.89-second 40-yard dash, 16 bench press repetitions, a 34-inch vertical jump and a 116-inch broad jump.[2]

Professional career

Ingold signed with the Oakland Raiders as an undrafted free agent on May 3, 2019.[6] Ingold made his first start for the Raiders on Monday Night Football against the Denver Broncos on September 9.[7] Ingold scored his first career touchdown on Week 10, in a 26-24 victory of the Los Angeles Chargers.[8] He caught three passes for 22 yards in a 20-16 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 15.[9]

Personal life

Ingold was childhood friends with fellow Bay Port alum Dan Buenning, the first BPHS football player to be drafted into the NFL.[1] During his time at Bay Port, Ingold was also a state champion wrestler, winning the 220-pound weight class in Division 1 as a senior.[10]

Before his rookie NFL season, Ingold secured an internship at Oracle Corporation in the event that he did not make a final NFL roster.[11]
