About Me

Westbrook played high school varsity football at DeMatha Catholic High School in Hyattsville, Maryland. The private, Catholic all-boys prep school has a storied tradition of athletic achievement, and Westbrook's play added to that legacy during his secondary school years.College After DeMatha, Westbrook became a standout running back at Villanova University from 1997-2001 and wore the number 20. Though he battled through several injuries, he holds the all-time NCAA record with 9,512 all-purpose yards, breaking the 9,301 yards accumulated by Brian Shay of Emporia State. In 46 career games, he scored 542 points with 84 TDs, carried the ball 725 times for 4298 yards (6.2 avg.), caught 219 passes for 2,582 yards and gained 2,289 yards and 4 TDs on kickoff returns. Along the way, he established 41 school, 13 Atlantic Ten Conference and 5 NCAA records.He became the only player in I-AA history to score 160 or more points twice in a career and the first player in the history of college football at any level with 1,000 rushing and 1,000 receiving yards in one season (1998). He is one of only two players in Villanova history to rush for over 1,000 yards in a season and he accomplished that feat three times.He was a consensus All-America and two-time A-10 offensive player of the year and was the 2001 recipient of the Walter Payton Award (as the top player in NCAA Division 1-AA). As a senior, he amassed 2,823 combined net yards and scored 29 touchdowns.Career2002/2003 Despite his dominance in college, NFL teams were hesitant to draft him in the 2002 NFL Draft for three reasons: his small size (he listed at only 5'8", 200 lb (91 kg), his injury history (he missed an entire college season with a knee injury), and the fact that he did not play college football for a NCAA Division I-A school.The Eagles took a risk, and picked the hometown favorite in the third round of that draft, and he has since blossomed into one of the NFL's most elusive players. Westbrook saw limited play in 2002, but he made his mark in the NFL in the 2003 season with a 4th quarter punt return for a touchdown to defeat the New York Giants 14-10 in the closing minutes on October 19, 2003. The play managed to turn the Eagles season around as they went to the NFC Championship Game. Westbrook, who scored eleven touchdowns by ground and air, missed the playoffs that year after injuring his biceps muscle in the final game of the season against the Washington Redskins.2004 After the departure of previous starter Duce Staley and a pre-season injury to Correll Buckhalter, Westbrook became the starting running back for 2004. He rushed for a career high 812 yards, led all NFL running backs in receiving with 73 receptions for 703 yards, and scored 9 touchdowns, creating numerous problems with opposing teams' defenses and helping to propel the Eagles to a 13-3 season. He went on to have a solid performance in Philadelphia's Super Bowl XXXIX loss to the New England Patriots, rushing for 44 yards, catching 7 passes for 60 yards, and scoring one touchdown. He was also added to his first Pro Bowl that February.2005 Westbrook signed a 5-year contract extension with the Eagles in November 2005, after holding out of training camp and months of hectic negotiations.With over 1,200 yards rushing and receiving, it was announced on December 6, 2005, that Westbrook would miss the rest of the 2005 season due to a mid-foot injury he sustained during a 42-0 MNF loss to the Seattle Seahawks.2006 Westbrook has resumed his high level of play so far in 2006, despite weekly issues with knee swelling. Westbrook's performance has been a bright spot for the Eagles in an otherwise disappointing season. On November 26, 2006, he became the first Eagle to rush for over 100 yards in three straight games since Wilbert Montgomery 25 years ago.As of Week 15, he leads all NFL running backs in yards per touch. (6.2) He also leads the Eagles in receptions (69), total TDs (11, 7 rushing/4 receiving) and rushing yards (1,092). He also has 664 yards recieving. He has already set a career high in rushing yards for the season, and in Week 15 against the New York Giants, he topped the 1,000-yard mark for the first time in his career.
