Football Player

The Resume

    (September 12, 1973- )
    Born in Westerville, Ohio
    Birth name is Kenneth Carter
    Played college football at Penn State University
    Finished runner-up in the Heisman Trophy voting in 1994
    Was the #1 overall selection of the Cincinnati Bengals in the 1995 NFL Draft
    Played for the Bengals (1995-1999), Washington Redskins (2001), and the New Orleans Saints (2003-2004)

Why he might be annoying:

    He got his nickname after a character in the movie 'Shaft in Africa.'
    He suffered a season-ending injury in his first NFL preseason game.
    He never was the same after the injury, and is considered to be one of the biggest draft busts of all time.
    He was one of many draft busts for the Bengals.
    He has spent more time on injured reserve than playing.
    At 5 feet 10 inches tall, he was one of the smaller RBs in the NFL.
    He was one of three RBs that turned out to be busts that graduated from Penn State, the others being Blair Thomas and Curtis Enis.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was a bust because he did not recuperate from his knee injury.
    Had it not been for that, no one knows how successful his career could have been.
    Unlike most draft busts, he lasted nearly ten years in the league.
    He was the first Nittany Lion to be taken with the first pick in the NFL draft.
    In his first full season in the NFL, he rushed for eight touchdowns.
    Had it not been for his injury, no one would have heard of Corey Dillon.
