Desmond Howard Booking Agent Details
Desmond Howard is a former college and NFL wide receiver and return specialist, who, after a storied career at the University of Michigan, played professionally from 1992-2002 with the Washington Redskins (1992-1994), Jacksonville Jaguars (1995), Green Bay Packers (1996, 1999), Oakland Raiders (1997-1998) and Detroit Lions (1999-2002). Howard won the Heisman Trophy while at Michigan in 1991. His many accolades that season included the Maxwell Award, Walter Camp Award, United Press International Player of the Year, Sporting News Player of the Year and a unanimous All-American selection. The school retired his No. 21 and, in 2011, he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.
While Howard enjoyed a career-best season with Washington in 1994, catching 40 passes for 727 yards and five scores, he is best remembered for his contributions to the 1996 Green Bay Packers in his lone year with the team. Howard excelled as a specialist that season, leading the NFL on punt return duty in yards (875), average per return (15.1 yards) and touchdowns (3). In Super Bowl XXXI with Green Bay facing the New England Patriots, Howard returned a punt 99 yards for a touchdown in helping the Packers win the game, 35-21. Howard was named Super Bowl MVP, giving him the distinction of being the only special teams player to ever capture game MVP honors. In 2000, Howard was named to the Pro Bowl while with Detroit. Following his playing days, Howard began a career in broadcasting, notably with ESPN and its popular College Gameday program.
