Vincent Workman (born May 9, 1967) is an American former professional football running back who was selected by the Green Bay Packers in the fifth round of the 1989 NFL draft.[1] Workman played eight seasons in the National Football League (NFL), from 1989 to 1996, for the Packers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Carolina Panthers and Indianapolis Colts. Prior to his career at Ohio State University, he attended Dublin Coffman High School in Dublin, Ohio,[2] where he still owns all but one rushing record from his tenure in 1982–1984. Workman was a three-year starter at running back and wide receiver while at Ohio State and was team captain in 1988. Workman then worked for the Packers as a pro scout and strength coach from 1999 to 2006.
Workman is the owner of the Green Bay Packers' team record for most catches by a running back in a single game with 12 in 1992 vs the Minnesota Vikings. He also owns the Carolina Panther's record for most receptions by a running back in a game vs the LA Rams in 1995. He was referred to by ESPN announcer Chris Berman as Vince Workman My Way Back To You Babe after the hit song by The Spinners.
