'''Andre Previn Rison''' (born March 18, 1967) is an American former professional [[Gridiron football|football]] player who was a [[wide receiver]] in the [[National Football League]] (NFL) for the [[Indianapolis Colts]], [[Atlanta Falcons]], [[Cleveland Browns]], [[Jacksonville Jaguars]], [[Green Bay Packers]], [[Kansas City Chiefs]], and [[Oakland Raiders]]. He also played in the [[Canadian Football League]] (CFL) for the [[Toronto Argonauts]]. Rison was selected to the [[Pro Bowl]] five times from 1990 to 1993 and once again in 1997.

Rison won a [[Super Bowl]] championship with the Packers in 1997 over the [[New England Patriots]], scoring the first points of the game on a 54-yard touchdown catch from quarterback [[Brett Favre]].  He also won a [[Grey Cup]] championship with the [[Toronto Argonauts]] in 2004. He is one of the few players to win professional football championships in both the [[United States]] and [[Canada]]. He was released by the Argonauts during the [[2005 CFL season]]. He holds an NFL record for scoring a touchdown with 7 teams.

He was a star player at [[Flint Northwestern High School]] and in college at [[Michigan State University]]. As a senior at Michigan State, Rison had 30 receptions for 709 yards and 5 touchdowns; he was a prominent contributor to the 1987 Michigan State squad that won the Rose Bowl on January 1, 1988.

During the early portion of his career, he received the nickname "Bad Moon" Rison, a reference to the [[Creedence Clearwater Revival]] song "[[Bad Moon Rising]]". Michael Adler is credited with giving the nickname to Chris Berman. When he played for the Chiefs, he had the nickname "Spiderman".

===Atlanta Falcons===
On April 20, 1990, the [[1993 Indianapolis Colts season|Indianapolis Colts]] traded Rison, [[Chris Hinton]], a fifth round pick in the 1990 NFL Draft, and their first round pick on the [[1991 NFL draft]] to the [[1993 Atlanta Falcons season|Atlanta Falcons]] for their first overall pick and their fourth round pick in the 1990 NFL Draft. The Indianapolis Colts used the trade to move up to select [[Jeff George]] first overall in the [[1990 NFL draft]]. His next season marked the first of five very productive campaigns with the Falcons. During these years, Rison finished near the top of most receiving categories, and led all NFL players with 15 receiving touchdowns in 1993. Andre Rison was only the 5th Receiver in NFL history to score 60 touchdowns in his first six seasons. Rison led the NFL in most receptions in his first four and first five seasons. Rison was second in the NFL for most receptions in six seasons.

===Cleveland Browns===
After the 1994 season, Rison signed a lucrative free agent contract with the Cleveland Browns, as operated by [[Art Modell]], who had to take a loan for the signing bonus for a deal was totalled five years for $17 million, which was at the time the most lucrative wide receiver deal ever signed. Rison was expected to become the featured receiving threat for the Browns, who had made the playoffs the year before.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.cleveland.com/brownshistory/plaindealer/index.ssf?/browns/more/history/19951217BROWNS.html |title=Affair To Remember Emotional Browns Pound The Bengals |newspaper=[[Cleveland Plain Dealer]] |last=Cabot |first=Mary Kay |date=December 17, 1995 |access-date=December 31, 2008 |archive-date=December 10, 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081210081209/http://www.cleveland.com/brownshistory/plaindealer/index.ssf?/browns/more/history/19951217BROWNS.html |url-status=dead }}</ref>  Rison, who had been named to the Pro Bowl in four of his previous six seasons, had career lows in receptions (47), yards (701), touchdowns (3), receptions per game (2.9), and yards per game (43.8). Rison also developed a feud with the Cleveland fans, who were angered over the announcement that the team would be relocating to Baltimore to go with his performance, with Rison later stating he had received death threats mailed to him.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.cleveland.com/browns/2015/11/andre_rison_1995_cleveland_browns.html | title=Andre Rison fanned the flames in '95; what does he say now? | date=November 18, 2015 }}</ref> After a home loss to the Packers, Rison, who had been booed by the fans throughout the game, lashed out, stating, "We didn't make the fucking move. So, for all the booers, fuck you too. I'll be glad when we get to Baltimore, if that's the case. We don't have any home-field advantage. I've never been booed at home. Baltimore's our home.

He joined the [[Jacksonville Jaguars]] in the offseason.

===Jacksonville Jaguars===
In 1996, Rison spent the first ten games with the [[Jacksonville Jaguars]], catching 34 passes for 458 yards and two touchdowns. Rison had a miscommunication with quarterback Mark Brunell in week 12 that resulted in an interception in a 28–3 loss to the [[Pittsburgh Steelers]]. This mistake caused tempers to flare between the two, and Rison was subsequently released.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Dame |first1=Mike |title=RISON CUT BY JAGUARS AFTER FAILING TO RISE TO EXPECTATIONS |url=https://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/os-xpm-1996-11-19-9611181034-story.html#:~:text=RISON%20CUT%20BY%20JAGUARS%20AFTER%20FAILING%20TO%20RISE%20TO%20EXPECTATIONS,-Mike%20Dame%20of&text=A%20day%20after%20stoically%20enduring,quietly%20as%20a%20lunar%20eclipse. |website=orlando sentinel |date=November 19, 1996}}</ref>

In three playoff games, culminating in a Super Bowl appearance, he caught seven passes for 143 yards and two touchdowns, with Rison catching the opening touchdown in [[Super Bowl XXXI]], a 35–21 victory.<ref>{{Cite web |title=1996 Green Bay Packers Rosters, Stats, Schedule, Team Draftees |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/gnb/1996.htm |access-date=2025-10-14 |website=Pro-Football-Reference.com |language=en}}</ref>

===Kansas City Chiefs===
He signed with the [[Kansas City Chiefs]] prior to the 1997 season. For the second time in his career (1993 being the only other time), Rison started in all 16 games of the season. He caught 72 passes for 1,092 yards and seven touchdowns as the Chiefs went on to become the #1 seed that year. In the Divisional round playoff game, Rison caught eight passes for 110 yards, but the Chiefs lost 14–10 to division rival and eventual [[Super Bowl]] champion [[Denver Broncos]]. The following year, he caught 40 passes in 14 total games for 542 yards and five touchdowns. For 1999, he played 15 games and regressed further, catching 21 passes for 218 yards with no touchdowns.

===Oakland Raiders===
With the [[Las Vegas Raiders|Oakland Raiders]] in 2000, he played in all 16 games without starting, catching 41 passes for 606 yards and six touchdowns. The Raiders made a run in the playoffs, and Rison made small contribution, catching three combined passes for 44 yards.

===Toronto Argonauts===
He signed with the [[Toronto Argonauts]] of the [[Canadian Football League]] in August 2004, who went on to win the [[92nd Grey Cup]] championship that year. He was released by the team in August 2005.<ref>[https://www.tsn.ca/story/print/?id=95733 "Argonauts sign veteran Andre Rison."] [[Canadian Press]], August 21, 2004. ''www.tsn.ca.''

==Nicknames==
Rison is also remembered for his life off the football field, which garnered him the nickname "''Bad Moon''" Rison from [[ESPN]] [[sportscaster]] [[Chris Berman]], alluding to the song "[[Bad Moon Rising (song)|Bad Moon Rising]]" by [[Creedence Clearwater Revival]].

During his three-season stint with Kansas City, Rison was nicknamed [[Spider-Man]] and would often fake shooting a web, like Spider-Man after scoring a touchdown.<ref>{{cite news |last=Prisco |first=Pete |title=Jaguars' 'Bad Moon' on rise as Chiefs' 'Spiderman' |url=http://jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/110797/j1c1riso.html |access-date=April 9, 2012 |newspaper=[[Florida Times-Union]] |date=November 7, 1997}}</ref> Rison gave himself the nickname in part because he viewed Spider-Man as a positive character and wanted to be thought of as less of a headache and problem. His "Spider-Man" nickname has been named one of the best nicknames in sports history by ''Bleacher Report''.<ref>{{cite news |last=Sickel |first=Jeremy |title=Jaguars' 'Bad Moon' on rise as Chiefs' 'Spiderman' |url=http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1217688-kansas-city-chiefs-spider-man-and-the-5-best-nicknames-in-franchise-history/page/2 |access-date=April 9, 2012 |website=[[Bleacher Report]] |date=June 11, 2012}}</ref>

==Life after football==

===Coaching===
In the 2006–2008 high school football seasons, Rison was assistant coach at Beecher High School in Flint, Michigan. The head coach was [[Courtney Hawkins (American football)|Courtney Hawkins]], Rison's former teammate at Michigan State.

In March 2010, Rison was named the new head coach for [[Flint Northwestern High School]]'s football team.<ref>[http://www.minbcnews.com/sports/story.aspx?id=436842#.UnKVQKrV5CU "Andre Rison named Northwestern High's football coach."] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131102041145/http://www.minbcnews.com/sports/story.aspx?id=436842#.UnKVQKrV5CU |date=November 2, 2013 }} ''www.minbcnews.com'', March 30, 2010.

For the opening week of the 2010 and 2011 high school football seasons, Rison and Flint Northwestern faced off against [[Courtney Hawkins (American football)|Courtney Hawkins]] and Flint Beecher. Not only did these games showcase two former NFL players coaching at their alma maters, but the schools are so close geographically that it made for an intriguing and intense rivalry. The crowds came in large numbers for both games, which forced each game to Flint's 11,000 seat Atwood Stadium, instead of Flint Beecher's Russ Reynolds Field or Flint Northwestern's Guy V. Houston Stadium. Beecher won the 2010 opener, 28–18, spoiling Rison's head coaching debut.<ref name= Rison>[http://www.minbcnews.com/sports/story.aspx?id=502869#.UG3jnWY24xA "Beecher spoils the head coaching debut of Andre Rison."] ''www.minbcnews.com'', August 26, 2010.

In two years at Flint Northwestern, Rison's coaching the team showed noticeable improvement in his second season, nearly doubling their offensive output, and losing four of their games by a combined total of only nine points. In May 2012, Rison announced that he was leaving Flint Northwestern in order to complete his degree at Michigan State and join the football team as an assistant coach.<ref name= coach>Spezia, Mark.
