ROGER CRAIG — 1,502 YARDS IN ONE SEASON. TWO YEARS LATER, ALMOST NOTHING WAS LEFT

Roger Craig made NFL history in 1985 by becoming the first player to record more than 1,000 rushing yards and 1,000 receiving yards in the same season. Then came three Super Bowl championships, a 1,502-yard rushing season, and a place among the most important players of the San Francisco 49ers dynasty. But just two years after that incredible 1,502-yard season, Craig's production had fallen to only 439 rushing yards. He left San Francisco, moved between teams, and ended his NFL career just a few years later. Why did the career of one of the most versatile running backs of his generation decline so suddenly? And why did he have to wait 33 years after his final game to finally reach the Pro Football Hall of Fame? This is the remarkable story of Roger Craig — a player who changed the running back position, reached the top of the NFL, and then faced a very different final chapter.
