During his college years, Burleson impressed with a number of records, including leading the NCAA in receiving yards and receptions per game. He ended with a total of 22 touchdowns and was given first-team All-American honors. Despite these accomplishments, Nate was not considered a major talking point in the NFL.NFL CareerAfter graduating wth a degree in human development and family studies, Burleson was picked in the third round of the 2003 NFL Draft, joining the Minnesota Vikings. He failed to win a starting spot during his rookie season, but by 2004 he was competing with Randy Moss. When Moss became injured, Nate was able to step in and record 1,000 receiving yards.

He is the only player in NFL history to accomplish this feat.In 2006, Burleson signed a new seven-year contract with the Seattle Seahawks worth $49 million.

He signed a one-year deal with the Cleveland Browns but was cut months later. He officially retired not long afterward. However, he would remain active in the world of sports as a wide receivers coach at a preparatory school in New Jersey.Entertainment CareerNate was exploring a potential broadcasting career as early as 2012.

As the story goes, Nate spent his first big paycheck from the Vikings on a new car and some jewelry. Unfortunately, the jewelry turned out to be fake.
