Moss was handed the honorary football by co-host Tedy Bruschi.
“I want to send a shoutout to, man, first and foremost, my wife and my kids, all of my teammates at Marshall, my coaches, Marshall University, Go Herd, man,” Moss declared.
The receiver starred for the Herd from 1996-97 and was drafted in the 1st round of the 1998 NFL Draft. At Marshall, Moss was the centerpiece of an explosive offense. The receiver came down with 90 catches for 1,647 yards and 25 touchdowns in 1997.

Moss still holds the Marshall all-time record for career touchdowns with 53.
