Marcus Allen Booking Agent Details
One of the top running backs in NFL history, Marcus Allen enjoyed a celebrated 16-year career playing for the Los Angeles Raiders (1982-1992) and Kansas City Chiefs (1993-1997). Allen made an immediate impact in the league after being picked by the Raiders in the 1982 NFL Draft (1st round, 10th overall pick) as evidenced by winning Rookie of the Year honors. He went on to be named to six Pro Bowls, was twice named First-Team All-Pro and twice led the NFL in touchdowns rushing. In 1985, Allen led the league in rushing yards behind a 1,759-yard campaign and was named NFL Offensive Player of the Year and MVP.
During the 1983-1984 season, Allen helped the Raiders to a 38-9 Super Bowl XVIII win over the Washington Redskins and took home MVP honors with 191 yards on the ground with two scores. In total for his career, Allen rushed for 12,243 yards and caught 587 balls for 5,412 yards. He became the first player in NFL history to amass more than 5,000 receiving yards and 10,000 rushing yards. He recorded 145 touchdowns, including 123 running the ball, which at the time was an NFL record. Allen became a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2003.
Born on March 26, 1960 in San Diego, California, Allen played college football at the University of Southern California (USC) from 1978-1981. He was a member of the Trojans’ national championship team in 1978 and, in 1981, won the Walter Camp Award, Maxwell Award and Heisman Trophy as the nation’s top collegiate football player. USC retired Allen’s jersey #33 and he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2000.
