Hubert Delanie Walker[1][2] (born August 12, 1984) is an American former professional football player who was a tight end in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at the Central Missouri State and was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in the sixth round of the 2006 NFL Draft.

After seven seasons with the 49ers, Walker then played another seven seasons for the Tennessee Titans, with whom he had the most success and was a three-time Pro Bowl selection. Walker was released from the Titans after the 2019 season after missing 25 regular-season games over the last two seasons due to an ankle injury.

Early life

Walker attended and played high school football at Pomona High School.[3] He was a first-team All-Region selection by The Times, adding All-Division and All-San Gabriel Valley honors as a senior under the direction of head coach John Capraro. He was twice chosen Miramonte League Offensive Player of the Year and was selected 2001 Pomona Red Devil of the Year. He played in the East/West All-Star game and also excelled in track & field, winning the Division III 100-meters title after also finishing first in the 2002 Miramonte League Meet.

After high school, Walker originally committed to UTEP, but decided to attend Mt. San Antonio College in Walnut, California to improve his academics.[4]

College career

Walker first enrolled at Mt. San Antonio College. In 2003, he was ranked seventh on JCFootball.com's "Top 101 Players" list. Walker finished his junior college career with 86 catches for 1,312 yards and 13 touchdowns. He then transferred to the University of Central Missouri.

While at Central Missouri, Walker set or equaled several receiving records. In two seasons at Central Missouri, he caught 113 passes for 1,347 yards and 10 touchdowns to go along with 35 career kickoff returns for 965 yards and three touchdowns.
