About Darren McFadden
Darren Deon McFadden (born August 27, 1987) is an American former professional football player who was a running back in the National Football League (NFL) for 10 seasons. He played college football for the Arkansas Razorbacks and was selected by the Oakland Raiders in the first round with the fourth overall pick of the 2008 NFL draft. McFadden also played three seasons for the Dallas Cowboys. At Arkansas, McFadden had a decorated career, twice finishing as a finalist for the Heisman Trophy and as a consensus member of the All-American team. He was highly touted coming out of school, and was picked fourth overall by the Raiders. McFadden struggled with consistency through his professional career, only rushing for over 1,000 yards twice and never started all 16 games of a season. McFadden retired midway through the 2017 NFL season, and was voted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2019.
