Platzgummer said that he had been playing football since he was 6 years old, just like his older brother, Adrian. His hometown team, the Swarco Raiders Tirol, is regarded as one of the best American football clubs in Austria and all of Europe. Their headquarters are located in Innsbruck.
Sandro Platzgummer, who is 25 years old and trying out for a spot on the roster of the New York Giants, is not your typical running back.
Platzgummer is a fourth-year medical student enrolled in a six-year program. Never in his life did he participate in college football. After completing a club program in Austria, he relocated to America. In training camp, he’s considered one of the real long shots, so perhaps that’s why his teammates found this past weekend’s victory so satisfying.
Platzgummer is a participant in the National Football League’s International Player Pathway Program (IPPP), which was formerly known as the “Undiscovered” program before being renamed in 2017.
The IPPP was renamed in 2018 to reflect its international focus. It was initially implemented from 2004-2009 with the intention of increasing the number of players from countries other than the United States and Canada who participated in the league.

Sandro Platzgummer has not yet been married. However, he is currently dating Julia Triendl. Julia is a professional volleyball player.
