Doug Chapman is a retired American football running back in the National Football League (NFL) who was drafted in the third round of the 2000 NFL draft, 88th overall, by the Minnesota Vikings where he played from 2000 to 2003 and with the San Diego Chargers in 2004.[1]

College Career

Champan attended Marshall University, where he rushed for over 4,000 yards and scored 61 total touchdowns. He was a member of the undefeated 1996 Marshall Thundering Herd football team that won the 1996 NCAA Division I-AA Football Championship Game and Mid-American Conference championship in 1997, 1998 and 1999. He was MVP of the 1999 Motor City Bowl [2] and was inducted into the Marshall University Hall of Fame in 2010.

NFL Career

In his first NFL career start versus the Green Bay Packers in 2001, Chapman rushed for 90 yards which was the most allowed by Green Bay on the season. An offensive penalty negated his first 100 yard rushing day. After Minnesota, Chapman signed with the San Diego Chargers in 2004 where he suffered a career ending back injury which paralyzed him from the waste down in preseason and officially retired in 2006.
