Active NFL players you didn’t know won a Super Bowl

#3 - Braxton Berrios

New York Jets v Miami Dolphins

Braxton Berrios of the New York Jets has become one of the best returners in the NFL, but did you know that, despite only being drafted in 2018, he’s already got a Super Bowl ring? Berrios was drafted by the New England Patriots in 2018 but was unfortunately placed on injured reserve before the season began, missing the entire year.

The Patriots, of course, went on to beat the Los Angeles Rams in that year's Super Bowl, and Berrios got a ring, despite not playing a snap for the team. He was waived during final roster cuts in August 2019. Despite a disappointing stint in New England, he still ended up with a Super Bowl title.

#2 - Trevor Siemian

New Orleans Saints v Atlanta Falcons

Quarterback Trevor Siemian has never been a true starter in the NFL. He can usually be seen filling in when his team's starter has gone down injured. That was the case in 2021, when he stepped in for the injured Jameis Winston for the New Orleans Saints, starting in four games.

Siemian has only played 33 games since being drafted by the Denver Broncos in 2015, but it was in 2015 that the rookie won a Super Bowl ring. As a backup to Peyton Manning, the former seventh-round draft pick only played one snap that year, taking a knee to close out the half against the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, as he was still on the roster come Super Bowl 50, Siemian won a ring when Manning and Von Miller led the Broncos to victory against the Carolina Panthers.

#1 - Tyrod Taylor

Houston Texans v Miami Dolphins

Veteran Tyrod Taylor has spent time with six teams in the NFL since being drafted in 2011 in round-six by the Baltimore Ravens. Taylor has played for the Ravens, Buffalo Bills, Cleveland Browns, Los Angeles Chargers, Houston Texans and New York Giants, and despite finding success in Buffalo, Taylor was a Super Bowl winner in Baltimore.

He backed up Joe Flacco as the Ravens beat Colin Kaepernick and the San Francisco 49ers to win Super Bowl XLVII in Taylor's second year in the league. Despite appearing in seven games and not starting one, this didn't stop Taylor from taking home a ring.
