1993
In 1993, as a rookie free agent who made the Minnesota Vikings roster, he entered a game vs the Green Bay Packers with 14 seconds left and the Vikings trailing by 2 from midfield and managed to get wide open down the right sideline where Jim McMahon found him all alone for a 45-yard pass that he caught, going out of bounds at the 5 yard line to set up a game winning field goal by Fuad Reveiz with six seconds left.Archived at [https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211205/RwrAOxxzq7U Ghostarchive]{{cbignore}} and the [https://web.archive.org/web/20200229210342/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwrAOxxzq7U Wayback Machine]{{cbignore}}: {{cite web| url = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RwrAOxxzq7U&t=507| title = Fuad's Field Goal Frenzy - Packers vs. Vikings (Week 4, 1993) Classic Highlights | website=YouTube}}{{cbignore}}
