After the team started off 1-2 during his senior year, he was replaced by true freshman Quarterback Brady Quinn, who remained the starter moving forward.

He made his first NFL start against the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football in his second season with the Arizona Cardinals when Larry Fitzgerald was out with a sprained ankle.

After being released by the Arizona Cardinals during week 13 in his second season, he was signed off waivers by the Green Bay Packers.

His last four weeks of the 2006 season included career highs in catches, 5, and yards, 87, vs the Chicago Bears in the final game of the season, and catching Brett Favre's record breaking completion against the Detroit Lions, breaking Dan Marino's career completions mark, now held by Tom Brady.
