Shannon Sharpe Super Bowl stats: How did he perform in his Super Bowl appearances?

Shannon Sharpe is an outspoken NFL commentator who has grown to enchant our screens for many younger generations. Many fail to recognize how outstanding a player he was during his prime and why he ranks among the best tight ends to play the position.

The Denver Broncos chose Sharpe in the seventh round of the 1990 NFL draft from Savannah State. After 14 years, he hung up his cleats as the TE with the most catches, yards, and TDs in history.

Sharpe had a successful 14-year career with the Baltimore Ravens and Denver Broncos. He was selected for seven straight Pro Bowls in his first stint with the Broncos.

He also received first-team All-Pro honors four times and was selected as the first-team tight end for the 1990s All-Decade Team. Sharpe recorded 815 catches for 10,060 yards and 62 scores, placing him among the top five tight ends of all time in each category. He got the highest personal award when he was chosen for induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2011.

Sharpe's career ticks a lot of boxes, and it also includes a long list of noteworthy team achievements. Sharpe played with three Super Bowl championship sides, winning consecutive championships with the Broncos in 1997 and 1998 before making another trip to the top of the NFL with the Ravens in 2000.

Naturally, no devoted Broncos follower can deny Sharpe's key role in the Broncos' consecutive Super Bowl victories in XXXII and XXXIII. He was among Trent Dilfer's main targets when the Baltimore Ravens triumphed in Super Bowl XXXV.

The Denver Broncos were led by quarterback John Elway and coach Mike Shanahan in Super Bowl XXXIII (1999). The Broncos won 34-19 over the Atlanta Falcons, with Sharpe starring with five catches for 62 yards.

Shannon Sharpe won the Super Bowl XXXV, which was played on January 28, 2001. Trent Dilfer and then coach Brian Billick led the Baltimore Ravens to a 34-7 victory over the New York Giants. In the contest, Sharpe had two catches for 12 yards. After that, he hung up his cleats and called it a career.
