He broke most of Notre Dame's pass reception records and was named to every All-America team since. Drafted in 1965 by the Minnesota Vikings who traded him to the (then) Los Angeles Rams, where he spent his entire 11-season National Football League career as a wide receiver. He was selected to the Pro Bowl in 1967. Regarded as a standout receiver for the Rams from 1965 to 1975, he finished fifth in the NFL in receptions (51) in 1970 and ninth that season in receiving yardage (859).
