Regarded as one of the most explosive wide receivers in school history, Kevin Curtis earned Associated Press Third-Team All-American honors and Football News Honorable Mention All-American honors as a junior in 2001 and was a two-time first-team all-independent selection for Utah State during the 2001 and 2002 seasons after transferring from Snow College, where he was a second-team All-American. During his junior year as a walk-on, Curtis led the nation with 9.1 receptions per game and set single-season school records for receptions (100), receiving yards (1,531), most double-digit reception games (6), most 100-yard receiving games (9), and most consecutive 100-yard receiving games (6), while adding 10 touchdowns. As a junior, Curtis also ranked third nationally in receiving yards per game (139.18) and 19th in all-purpose yards per game (141.45), and had 252 receiving yards against Weber State to rank as the second-most in a single-game in school history. Curtis again led the team in receptions (74), receiving yards (1,258) and receiving touchdowns (9) during his senior season as he ranked seventh in the nation in receiving yards per game (114.36) and 12th in the country in receptions per game (6.73). His 1,258 receiving yards as a senior still ranks fourth all-time in school history, while his 74 catches rank fifth all-time. Overall, Curtis had 16 career 100-yard receiving games to rank first all-time in school history to go along with two 200-yard receiving games, and also holds the school record for receiving yards per game for both a season (139.2) and career (126.8). His 7.9 receptions per game during his two-year career also ranks first all-time in school history, and he ranks second all-time in school history in both career receptions (174) and career receiving yards (2,789). Curtis, who had 19 receiving touchdowns during his Aggie career to rank tied for fifth all-time in school history, had four touchdown receptions of 79 or more yards during his Aggie career, which is a school record. Following his collegiate career, Curtis was selected in the third round of the 2003 National Football League Draft by the St. Louis Rams and spent nine years in the NFL with the Rams (2003-06), Philadelphia Eagles (2007-09), Miami Dolphins (2010), Kansas City Chiefs (2010) and Tennessee Titans (2011).
