When he retired at the age of 39 after the 1986 season with the San
Diego Chargers, he ranked as the leading receiver of all-time with 750
catches.
Blessed with excellent speed and tantalizing moves,
Joiner averaged 16.2 yards per catch and accounted for 12,146 yards and
65 touchdowns on his receptions. He ranked sixth in career reception
yardage.
The Houston Oilers targeted Joiner for the defensive
backfield when they picked the 5-11, 180-pounder from Grambling in the
fourth round of the 1969 AFL-NFL Draft. Joiner played briefly on
defense and the kickoff return team but soon became established as a
premier pass catcher.
In his fourth season in 1972, Houston
sent him to the Cincinnati Bengals in a four-player swap. Four years
later in 1976, he was traded to San Diego. With the Chargers, Joiner
blossomed into super-stardom. He and quarterback Dan Fouts formed a
lethal pass-catch team that accounted for the preponderance of his 586
receptions as a Charger.
During his 11 years in San Diego,
Joiner caught 50 or more passes seven times and had 70 or more
receptions three seasons. Injuries cut into his playing time at the
beginning but, in a 193-game span over his final 13 seasons, Joiner
missed only one game. He was an All-NFL pick in 1980 and a Pro Bowl
choice three times. In the 1980 AFC title game, he led the Chargers
with six receptions for 130 yards and two touchdowns.
