Jamal Anderson
Jamal Anderson is a former running back in the National Football League, with the Atlanta Falcons. He played eight seasons with the Falcons, amassing 5,336 rushing yards, 156 receptions for 1,645 yards, and 41 touchdowns before he suffered what became a career-ending tear of his ACL in 2001. His best season came in 1998 when he carried the ball an NFL single-season record 410 times (surpassed by Larry Johnson in 2006) for 1,846 yards and 14 touchdowns. He was just 162 yards away from league leader and NFL MVP Terrell Davis for rushing champion. All of his efforts helped lift the 14-2 Falcons to the Super Bowl before losing to the Denver Broncos led by John Elway and league MVP Terrell Davis. He rushed for 113 yards and two touchdowns in the Falcons playoff win against the San Francisco 49ers, and 96 yards in the Super Bowl.
He was well-known for his Dirty Bird touchdown celebration, in which he flapped his arms like wings and gyrated in the crowd's direction.
Jamal is currently trying his hand at sports broadcasting, skydiving, and wine tasting. He played in the NFL Pro Bowl alumni game on February 10, 2007, during which he scored a touchdown and did his trademark Dirty Bird celebration.
