Kevin Mawae played his first four NFL seasons with Seattle and the next eight with the New York Jets, where he had a seven-year streak of Pro Bowl Selections. When the Jets released Mawae in 2006, the Titans were more than happy to acquire him to shore up their Offensive Line.
At Center, Mawae protected a rookie Vince Young, who had his best season in the NFL, winning the Offensive Rookie of the Year. Young regressed, but Mawae got better as he aged, going to the Pro Bowl in both 2008 and 2009, earning a First Team All-Pro in the latter, which would be his final NFL season.
Not a bad way to go out!
Mawae was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2019.
