Nick Temple, Vice-President of the UFPA, is an Indianapolis native who has played collegiate and professional football since 2014. He has played in various professional leagues including the NFL, CFL, AAF, and XFL from 2014 until retirement.

He returned to school for his master’s in Sports administration at the University of Cincinnati. He has always had a hunger to help others in sports and education, especially the youth. In 2020 when the UPFA was founded, he helped educate and advocate for people who were not members of the NFL or CFL by informing players of bankruptcy cases and speaking engagements for younger players coming into this profession. After retiring from football in 2023, Nick has been a part of the collective bargaining agreement for players in the USFL spring league in 2022.  As co-founder of the Players’ Association, Nick’s goal is to continue to educate, inspire, and advocate for players. He believes players’ voices should be heard as decisions that impact their everyday lives in this profession.
