Speedy and sure-handed Kevin Curtis made an immediate impact in his first year in Philadelphia. After signing a six-year contract with the club in the 2006 offseason, Curtis went on to eclipse the 1,000-yard mark (1,110) for the first time in his career, while also setting career highs in receptions (77) and touchdowns (8). In fact, Curtis became just the second Eagles wide receiver to tally over 1,000 yards in a single season since head coach Andy Reid took over in 1999. He also became just the fourth wideout in franchise history to record 75-or-more receptions in a season. Originally a third round draft choice of St. Louis in 2003, Curtis spent his first four seasons working with one of the most explosive receiving tandems in NFL history - Isaac Bruce and Torry Holt.
CAREER HIGHLIGHTS:
- Became the first player in NFL history to recover his own team's fumble for a TD in back-to-back games when he fell on Reggie Brown's fumble in the 3rd qtr. vs. Buf. (12/30/07). He recovered a McNabb fumble for a score a week earlier at NO (12/23/07)
- Set career highs in recepts. (11), yds. (221), and TDs (3) vs. Det. (9/23/07). His 221-yd. outing was the 2nd-highest single-game performance in franchise history, behind Hall of Fame WR Tommy McDonald's 237-yd. output (12/10/61)
- Became the 2nd player in NFL history to have two back-to-back 100-yd. receiving games in the playoffs before ever recording one in the regular season. Pittsburgh's Ernie Mills was the other
2007 HIGHLIGHTS:
- Set career highs in receptions (77), receiving yards (1,110) and TDs (8). In surpassing the 1,000-yd. receiving mark for the 1st time in his career, also became just the 2nd Eagles receiver to do so under Andy Reid
- With 77 receptions in 2007, became just the 4th wide receiver in Eagles history to record 75-or-more catches in a single season, joining Irving Fryar (88 in 1996, 86 in 1997), Fred Barnett (78 in 1994), and Terrell Owens (77 in 2004). His 77 receptions rank t-7th on the Eagles all-time single-season list
- Joined Reggie Brown and Brian Westbrook as the franchise's first trio of players to each top the 60-catch and 750-yd. plateaus in the same season (Westbrook 90-771, Curtis 77-1,100, Brown 61-780) in 2007
- The receiving tandem of Curtis, Westbrook and Brown was one of three in the NFL to boast three players with 60-or-more recepts. in 2007, along with the Lions and Texans
- Caught 6 passes for 111 yards, including a 24-yd TD vs. Sea. (12/2)
- Hauled in a quick slant pass from QB Donovan McNabb and took it 75 yds. for a TD at NYJ (10/14). Finished the game going 5-121-1TD receiving
2006 HIGHLIGHTS:
- Hauled in a game-winning TD pass (5 yds.) from QB Marc Bulger vs. SF (11/26/06)
2005 HIGHLIGHTS:
- Set career highs in recepts. (60), yds. (801), and TDs (6)
- Hauled in game-winning TD pass (56 yds.) in OT at Hou. (11/27/05)
- Set a career high in recepts. (9) vs. Arz. (11/20/05)
- Notched his 1st career regular season 100-yd. receiving game (3-105-1TD) vs. Jax. (10/30/05). Hauled in a career-long 83-yd. TD pass from Jamie Martin
