Joey Galloway played an incredible 16 seasons in the NFL. Galloway was drafted with the 8th overall pick in the 1995 NFL Draft by the Seattle Seahawks. He was known for his speed and deep-threat capability on the field, making him a formidable weapon for any offense.
After five productive seasons with the Seahawks, which included three 1,000-yard receiving seasons, Galloway was traded to the Dallas Cowboys in 2000. His stint with the Cowboys was marred by injuries, but he rebounded in 2005 and 2006 in Tampa Bay with back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons.
Galloway finished with stops with the Patriots and the Washington Football Team. He ended his career in 2010 with over 10,000 receiving yards and 77 receiving touchdowns.

One of Branch’s most memorable moments came during Super Bowl XXXIX in 2005. In a game that saw the Patriots edge out the Philadelphia Eagles, Branch was named Super Bowl MVP after recording 11 receptions for 133 yards. This performance tied the Super Bowl record for receptions in a game.
Branch spent time with the Seahawks between his stints with the Patriots, but he would eventually return to New England, showcasing the strong bond he shared with the team and its fan base.
