Barry Sanders is one of the greatest running backs to ever take the gridiron in the NFL. Starring 10 seasons for the Detroit Lions, Sanders easily could have shattered every NFL rushing record but chose to retire instead.

Barry Sanders went to college at Oklahoma State. In 1988, his junior season, Sanders led the nation in rushing yards (2,628), total yards (3,250), touchdowns (39) and scoring (234 points) and won the Heisman Trophy. His rushing yards and touchdowns in that year still stand (quite easily) as NCAA single season records. Sanders was enshrined in the College Football Hall of Fame in 2003.

The Detroit Lions selected Barry Sanders third overall in the 1989 NFL Draft. Sanders was famous for sometimes running the full width of the field to gain only a yard on a play and then, on the next, break through for a long gain. Sanders' best year came in 1997, when he rushed for 2,053 yards, only the third player to rush for over 2,000 yards in a single season.

He also became the first running back to rush for 1,500 yards in five seasons and the only one to do it four consecutive years. He also set an NFL record by rushing for at least 100 yards in 14 consecutive games. He shared the league's Most Valuable Player award with Brett Favre in 1997 as well. He retired quite unexpectedly and suddenly after the 1999 season.

In 2004, Sanders became the third youngest player ever inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. Only Gale Sayers and Jim Brown were younger.
