The famous Jake Anthony Kumerow is an American football wide receiver for the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League. He played college football at Illinois and UW–Whitewater and was signed by the Cincinnati Bengals as an undrafted free agent in 2015.
On December 26, 2017, Kumerow was signed to the Green Bay Packers practice squad. He signed a reserve/future contract with the Packers on January 2, 2018.
On September 3, 2018, Kumerow was placed on injured reserve. He was activated off injured reserve on December 1, 2018, and made his NFL debut the following day, in a week 13 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. He also recorded his first career reception, an 11-yard pass from Aaron Rodgers, during that game. On December 23, he scored his first NFL touchdown on a 49-yard reception against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium.
Kumerow returned to the Packers on March 11, 2019. On April 25, 2020, the Packers re-signed Kumerow as an exclusive-rights free agent, which kept him under contract for Green Bay for another year. He was released during final roster cuts on September 5, 2020, shortly after Rodgers had publicly praised his play. As a result, Kumerow’s release was later reported as a tipping point for Rodgers, who had developed a rapport with the receiver and was upset with Packers management over his departure.
