Eric Palmer Kumerow ( Pyle; born April 17, 1965) is an American former professional football player who was a linebacker for three seasons in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Ohio State Buckeyes, and was selected in the first round of the 1988 NFL draft by the Miami Dolphins. He did not perform as well as expected and was considered to be a draft bust. After three seasons with the Dolphins, Kumerow signed with the Chicago Bears, but tore his Achilles tendon before his fourth season started and subsequently retired.
