With the recent retirement of NFL referees Ron Winter and Scott Green, the NFL replaced them by promoting former field judge Craig Wrolstad and side judge Ronald Torbert to the referee position.
Now, the NFL has released its entire officiating roster with 12 new names added to the list.
“The NFL is about constantly striving to improve performance, and that is certainly the case for our game officials,” said NFL vice president of officiating Dean Blandino. “Both Ron and Craig have proven to be outstanding NFL officials and they are ready to assume the increased responsibilities of the referee position. Our 12 first-year officials were all among the best in college football. We are excited about having them on the field.”
Among the new officials, four are from the Pac-12, three from the SEC, two from the Big 10, two from the Big 12 and one from the ACC.
The league also announced that 21 others will join the 119 officials in the Officiating Development Program, which will work at minicamps in June and will help officiate a preseason game. Two of that 21 are females with Sarah Thomas returning to the program for the second year and Maia Chaka entering the program for the first time. Both were Conference USA officials in 2013.
