Among those distinctions, he rushed 2,628 yards and scored 37 touchdowns over 11 games during his junior year - with a Heisman Trophy and All-American designation following now long after.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot surprisingly, Sanders was drafted the following year by the NFL. The streak that started during his college years continued with an NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Award and an NFL Offensive Player of the Year Award roughly five years later and again in 1997. By the time he retired in 1999, he edged close to - but didn't quite surpass - the NFL's rushing record, held at the time by Walter Payton.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut while some think he left the game too soon, Sanders continues to rank fourth for his career rushing yards (15,269), gets remembered for Detroit's first postseason win since 1958 and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2004.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut before all that, Sanders began his career on an extremely promising note - and more than followed through. This 1989 Pro Set Rookie Card #494, hand-signed by Sanders, commemorates his impact on the Lions and the game overall. The condition of this card was graded a Near Mint\/Mint 8 by BGS.
