Czirr played college football at the center position for head coach Bo Schembechler's Michigan Wolverines football teams from 1973 to 1975. He started all 12 games for the 1975 Michigan Wolverines football team that was ranked #8 in the final AP Poll. He was selected by the conference coaches as the first-team center on the 1975 All-Big Ten Conference football team.

Czirr was selected by the Denver Broncos in the ninth round (252nd overall pick) of the 1976 NFL Draft. In July 1976, Czirr announced that he would not report to the Broncos, citing an arthritic vertebra.

He later became an entrepreneur and executive in the biomedical field.
