Happy 59th birthday to five-time Pro Bowler, one-time All-Pro and Super Bowl XXI champion, Andre Rison!
Rison was selected with the 22nd-overall pick of the 1989 NFL Draft out of Michigan State, and was able to contribute right away with 52 catches for 820 yards and four touchdowns as a rookie with the Colts. Rison was traded to the Falcons after that season, where he’d have the first of four-consecutive Pro Bowl seasons with the Falcons. In 1993 he had the best year of his career, leading the NFL with 15 TD receptions to go and a career-high 1,242 yards.
After being released by the Falcons after the 1994 season, he spent time with the Browns, Jaguars, Packers, Chiefs and Raiders. He won his Super Bowl ring with the Packers, catching two passes for 77 yards and a touchdown in Green Bay’s 35-21 win over the Patriots.
Which brings us to today’s quiz. Rison is one of 64 players in NFL history to post at least five 1,000-receiving-yard seasons in their career. How many of those players can you name in seven minutes?
Good luck!
