Samuel George Hurd III (born April 24, 1985) is an American former professional football wide receiver and convicted drug dealer.

Hurd attended Brackenridge High School in San Antonio, Texas, where he practiced football, basketball and track.

He helped NIU to a victory in the 2004 Silicon Valley Football Classic in a game that was delayed nearly 40 minutes due to a power outage.

A strong running offense limited Hurd's receiving stats until his senior year, when he registered 65 receptions for 1,074 yards, and 13 touchdowns (second best in school history).

He teamed with P. J. Fleck, Shatone Powers, and Dan Sheldon to form one of the best wide receiver groups in the MAC.

In 2008, after the release of Terry Glenn, Hurd was given the opportunity to start opposite to Terrell Owens, but suffered a high left-ankle sprain in preseason that caused him to miss the first three games of the season.

It was originally co-hosted by quarterback Tony Romo, but in 2008, Hurd teamed up with wide receiver Terrell Owens for the show that aired on Tuesday nights on KLLI from the House of Blues in Dallas.

[5] On December 14, 2011, Hurd was arrested in Chicago for allegedly attempting to purchase and distribute large quantities of cocaine and marijuana, and faced federal drug charges in the Dallas Division of the Northern District of Texas.

On January 24, after finding a new attorney, Hurd entered a plea of not guilty for setting up a drug-dealing network.
