His college career stats were quite good for that reason he was invited to the 2012 Senior Bowl which made him the second Utah State student after Chris Cooler (in 2004) to play in the Senior Bowl.

On May 7, 2012, he signed a four-year contract for the sum of $4.30 million, along with a signing bonus of $1.57 million and a guarantee of $2.51 million. However, for an injury sustained by teammate Barrett Ruud, Bobby Wagner was named starting linebacker along with teammates KJ Wright and Leroy Hill. Bobby’s rookie season ended with 140 combined tackles, including 87 solo tackles, 4 pass deflections, 3 interceptions, and 2 sacks in the 16 games he played, all but one of which he started.
He suffered a loss with the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XLIX after losing 24-28 to the New England Patriots. Nonetheless, Wagner still leads all-time with the most tackles (22) in a Super Bowl.

Family: Girlfriend, Wife, Daughter
Bobby Wagner would have a daughter named Quinncey Wagner, born shortly after her mother’s death. At this point in his life, the footballer revealed that the pain of losing someone dear to him was quite severe but at the same time he gained another person after the birth of his daughter.
