Jonas Gürntke is a dynamic German Defensive Back and a core figure in the Munich Ravens’ secondary in the European League of Football (ELF). Hailing from Munich, Gürntke built his foundational career over several years with the Rosenheim Rebels before making the leap to the professional level with the Ravens in 2023.
A highly decorated player at the club level, he earned multiple Defensive MVP and Team MVP awards during his time with the Rebels. Known for playing an aggressive style of football, Gürntke quickly became a key figure in the Ravens’ defensive backfield. Despite a season-ending injury in 2023, the franchise renewed his contract, with Director of Sports Sean Shelton highlighting his aggressive play as part of the future identity of the defense. Gürntke himself views the Munich Ravens as “the place to be” for his continued development as a player.
