tight end to record three touchdown receptions in a single game, helping his team to a 31–31 tie. 1977 Trumpy continued to play for the Bengals until 1977, earning two trips to the Pro Bowl in 1970 and 1973. In his final season, he caught only 18 passes for 251 yards and one touchdown, but his touchdown was one of the most memorable plays of his career. In a November 20 game against the Miami Dolphins during a driving rainstorm, Trumpy caught a 29-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Ken Anderson on a flea flicker play that involved three players handling the ball before it was thrown to him. First, Anderson handed the ball off to running back Archie Griffin, who then pitched the ball to receiver John McDaniel running in the opposite direction. McDaniel then handed the ball back to Anderson, setting up his 29-yard touchdown pass to Trumpy. The Bengals went on to defeat the Dolphins 23–17, knocking them out of playoff contention. "It was magic", said Trumpy about the play, Career statistics Trumpy finished his 10-year career with 298 receptions for 4,600 yards and 35 touchdowns in 128 games. His 4,600 receiving yards, 35 touchdown receptions, and 15.4 yards per catch average are the most ever by a Bengals tight end.

In 1978, he joined NBC as a color analyst for telecasts of AFC games, working primarily with Sam Nover through 1980, then with Bob Costas (1981–1983) and Don Criqui (1984–1988). Trumpy and Criqui also served as NBC Radio's lead NFL announcers in from 1985 to 1986, calling Monday Night Football and Super Bowls XX and XXI.

The team of Enberg and Trumpy called Super Bowls XXVII (1993) and XXVIII (1994). He would then be paired with Tom Hammond (1995–1996) and Charlie Jones (1997) until NBC lost the AFC package to CBS following the 1997 season. Trumpy hosted a weeknight sports talk show on WLW-AM in Cincinnati, Ohio (1980–1989). He left the show to be able to work more assignments at NBC Sports, including PGA Tour golf and the Olympics.
