Rashaan Salaam
In 1944, Rashaan Salaam had one of the greatest seasons of running back in college football history. He even became the fourth major college player to exceed the 2,000-yard mark. At the Fiesta Bowl, he earned three touchdowns during a game against Notre Dame. The Chicago Bears took him in as their 21st pick. He had a promising rookie season, but he fumbled too much. In the end, he broke a leg and tore his ankle ligament. While he attempted a few comebacks, he later found himself in the XFL.
