Matthew Garrett Forte, born on December 10, 1985, is a former professional football player who made a significant impact during his ten seasons in the National Football League (NFL). Forte played college football at Tulane University, where he showcased his versatility as a running back. His impressive college career led to his selection by the Chicago Bears in the second round of the 2008 NFL Draft. Forte quickly established himself as a key player for the Bears, known for his ability to contribute both as a rusher and a receiver, making him one of the most dynamic dual-threat backs of his era.

Forte's versatility was one of his defining traits, and he became one of only three players in NFL history to record at least 1,000 rushing yards and 100 receptions in a single season. This rare achievement highlighted his ability to impact the game in multiple ways, whether it was running between the tackles or catching passes out of the backfield. His consistency and durability allowed him to be a reliable option for the Bears' offense, and he was a key contributor to the team's success during his eight seasons in Chicago.

After his time with the Bears, Forte signed with the New York Jets, where he played for two seasons before retiring from professional football. Over the course of his career, Forte accumulated over 9,000 rushing yards and more than 4,000 receiving yards, solidifying his place as one of the most productive running backs of his generation. His ability to excel in both facets of the game made him a valuable asset to any team he played for, and his contributions were recognized by fans and analysts alike.

Forte's legacy in the NFL is marked by his versatility, work ethic, and professionalism. He was a two-time Pro Bowl selection and consistently ranked among the league's top running backs throughout his career. His ability to perform at a high level in both the running and passing game set him apart from many of his peers, and he remains a respected figure in the football community.
