Started Games 1, 3-5, 8, 10 and did not start other 6 games because offense opened up in either 2-TE or 3-WR sets... Scored first 2 TDs of career and tied for team lead with 2 receiving TDs... Snagged 14 passes, second-most of career, for 55 yards and added 7 special teams tackles.

2001: Recorded career-high 23 special teams tackles while appearing in all 16 games for the first time in his career, starting 1 game. Also forced 2 fumbles while playing on both punt and kickoff coverage teams. Caught 9 passes for a career-high 129 yards while serving as the lead-blocker for NFC rushing champion Stephen Davis.

COLLEGE: Three-year starter made 266 tackles at LB during his career at Boise State (1996-99). Led the Broncos in tackles each season, making 105 as a senior when he was named first-team All- Big West and was a Dick Butkus Award candidate.
