Warren is one of only 2 players in history to be inducted into both the NFL Hall of Fame and the CFL Hall of Fame. In the NFL he played for the
Houston Oilers, the Minnesota Vikings, the Seattle Seahawks and the Kansas City Chiefs. As one of
the greatest players in professional football history, he ranks among the top in nearly every
offensive statistical category for quarterbacks. He passed nearly 50,000 yards in 17 NFL seasons,
including 9 Pro-Bowl appearances. He is the only black quarterback to be inducted into the NFL Hall
of Fame.
Among his many accomplishments, Warren is most proud of being honored as NFL Man of the Year for
his charitable work with the Crescent Moon Foundation, an organization he founded to provide
support for educational pursuits benefiting those children most in need. One of six children
growing up with a single mother, Warren learned about giving back at an early age. “If you have the ability to enrich
people’s lives because of your name and your status then you should take advantage of it.”
In addition to his role as a sports announcer for the Seattle Seahawks, Warren is an entertaining
and engaging speaker who weaves in personal stories and anecdotes gleaned over his remarkable
career. Warren shares with audiences his vie on the importance of strong mentors and the
accountability that each of us has to those we touch in life.
