Cris Carter is considered one of the most accomplished pass catchers in NFL history. Drafted out of Ohio State University by the Philadelphia Eagles in 1987, Cris’s first reception as a pro was a 22-yard touchdown catch. He went on to a stellar NFL career spanning 15 years, including 12 years with the Minnesota Vikings. Combining stunning athletic ability with durability, Cris played a full 16-game slate for 13 seasons and appeared in eight consecutive Pro Bowls. In 1999, he became only the second player in NFL history to catch 1,000 passes, putting him into the history books alongside Jerry Rice. Cris ranks second on the NFL's all-time list for total receptions (1,101) and receiving touchdowns (130). He was named to the All-Decade Team (1990) by the Pro-Football-Hall-of-Fame Selection Committee and received the 1999 NFL Man of the Year award. In 2002, Cris returned to the field when he joined the Miami Dolphins in midseason when injuries decimated their receiving corps. During Cris’ playing career, he worked for various television networks as a game and studio analyst, a job he continues to this day. From 2002-2007, Cris was a studio analyst for HBO’s Inside the NFL. He has also hosted an NFL show on Sirius Satellite Radio during the season and serves as the NFL expert analyst for Yahoo Sports. He recently joined ESPN as an NFL analyst. Cris is a sought after public speaker and has spoken to many Fortune 500 companies, including John Hancock and Pitney Bowes.
