Our 2026 guest speaker: Harry Swayne

Swayne spent 15 years in the NFL, playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, San Diego Chargers, Denver Broncos, Baltimore Ravens, and Miami Dolphins.

During his NFL career, Swayne won two Super Bowls while playing for the Broncos in 1997 and 1998, and with the 2000 Ravens. It was on the field of his second Super Bowl with the Broncos that Swayne says he found God in the tunnel before Super Bowl XXXIII.

Following his NFL retirement in 2001, Swayne served as the Chicago Bears team chaplain for five years. In 2008, Swayne returned to the Baltimore Ravens, and served as the assistant director of player programs. In 2010 Swayne became the director of player development for the Ravens, and in this role earned an additional Super Bowl ring.
