Clinton Portis: 2002 Draft Day Picks
Clinton Portis, born on September 1, 1981, in Laurel, Mississippi, is celebrated as one of the top running backs in football, a reputation he established early in his high school days. Known for his size, athleticism, and speed, Portis consistently racks up impressive yardage year after year.
After a standout high school career, Portis had his pick of colleges nationwide but chose to showcase his skills at the University of Miami. He quickly made history as the first true freshman to start at running back for the Hurricanes since 1975.
Despite an impressive college run, Portis wasn't among the top-ranked players in the 2002 NFL Draft, which led to him being selected 51st overall by the Denver Broncos. Though drafted later than other running backs, Portis quickly proved naysayers wrong. His outstanding rookie performance earned him the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year title, and he rushed for over 1,500 yards in each of his first two seasons.
In 2004, the Washington Redskins traded for Portis and signed him to an 8-year contract worth over $50 million. While his first season with the Redskins saw a slight dip, he still managed 1,315 rushing yards. By 2005, Portis was back to peak form, rushing for 1,516 yards. This achievement placed him among only three NFL players ever to rush for more than 1,500 yards in three of their first four seasons.
Portis was set for another stellar year in 2006, but injuries hampered his performance and eventually sidelined him in November. Nonetheless, his early career remains a testament to his exceptional talent and determination.
