Desmond Howard Motivational Speaker Fee | Booking Agent Contact

Desmond Howard is a former professional football player who made a significant impact in both college and the NFL. Born on May 15, 1970, Howard first gained national attention during his time at the University of Michigan, where he was a standout wide receiver and return specialist. His exceptional performance in college earned him the prestigious Heisman Trophy in 1991, a year in which he was also named a unanimous All-American. Howard's ability to make game-changing plays, particularly in the return game, set him apart from his peers and made him a highly sought-after talent in the NFL Draft.

In 1992, Howard was selected fourth overall by the Washington Redskins in the NFL Draft. While his career as a wide receiver was solid, it was his work on special teams that truly defined his legacy. Howard became one of the most dangerous return specialists in NFL history, setting the single-season record for punt return yardage. His speed, vision, and ability to read the field made him a constant threat to opposing teams, and he quickly became known for his electrifying returns that could change the momentum of a game in an instant.

Howard's crowning achievement came during Super Bowl XXXI, where he played for the Green Bay Packers. In that game, Howard set an NFL record for punt return yards and delivered a 99-yard kickoff return for a touchdown, the longest in Super Bowl history at the time. His performance earned him the Super Bowl MVP award, making him the first and only special teams player to ever receive the honor. Howard's contributions were instrumental in the Packers' victory, and his Super Bowl performance remains one of the most memorable in NFL history.

After an 11-season career in the NFL, Howard retired as one of the most accomplished return specialists the league has ever seen. His impact on the game was recognized in 2010 when he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame, a fitting tribute to his outstanding college career. Today, Howard is remembered not only for his individual accolades but also for his ability to change the course of games with his dynamic playmaking ability on special teams.
