Santana Moss currently plays wide receiver for the Washington Redskins.
Moss was a first round (16th overall) pick in the 2001 NFL Draft by the New York Jets out of the University of Miami.
Following the 2004 season, Moss was acquired by the Redskins in a trade with the Jets.
Known for his big play potential, Moss started the season off with a bang in just Week 2 against the Dallas Cowboys,
where he caught two touchdown passes of 39 and 70 yards from Mark Brunell in the last five minutes to beat the
Cowboys 14-13 on Monday Night Football. This dramatic finish immediately endeared him to his new hometown fans,
and set the stage for a season that would turn him into a fan favorite in Washington.
While Moss does not have the size of prototypical wide receiver,
he does have excellent speed and amazing quickness which allows him to consistently separate from defensive backs.
Also, due to his size, Moss does not receive a lot of jump balls,
though he is adept at making leaping grabs due to his 44-inch vertical.
