The Washington Commanders will induct wide receiver Santana Moss into the franchise's Ring of Fame during the Sept. 7 season opener against the New York Giants, the team announced Sunday.
Moss played the last 10 seasons (2005-14) of his NFL career with Washington following four seasons with the New York Jets (2001-04).
He ranks third in Washington franchise history in career catches (581), fourth in receiving yards (7,867) and seventh in touchdown receptions (47).
Moss made his lone Pro Bowl in his first year in the nation's capital, catching 84 passes for a career-high 1,483 yards and nine TDs. His yardage total remains the Washington single-season record.
The Commanders surprised Moss, 46, during a live broadcast with the team at training camp in Ashburn, Va. He was surrounded by friends and family members wearing burgundy caps with 'MOSS' on the front and his jersey No. 89 on the sides.
'Normally, I am so nonchalant,' an emotional Moss said. 'I don't know how to take in stuff, but man, that one right there ... I don't want to show my tears, but I'm about to shed some. I appreciate that news.'
Drafted in the first round (16th overall) by the Jets in 2001, Moss retired with 732 receptions for 10,283 yards and 66 scores in 197 games (135 starts). He had 24 100-yard games and four 1,000-yard seasons.
