1961

Christopher Jerrod Hinton (born July 31, 1961) is an American former professional football player who was an offensive tackle for 13 seasons in the National Football League (NFL), primarily with the Indianapolis Colts franchise.

In addition to his seven seasons with the Colts, he was a member of the Atlanta Falcons for four seasons and the Minnesota Vikings for two seasons.

Hinton played college football for the Northwestern Wildcats.

1979

A graduate of Chicago's Phillips High School, Hinton began attending Northwestern University in 1979 and was originally a tight end.

As a true freshman he played in 11 games and caught seven passes for 43-yards.

1980

In his last season as a tight end in 1980 he caught 19 passes for 265 receiving yards in ten games.

1981

As a junior in 1981, Hinton was switched to offensive tackle by second year head coach Dennis Green.

1982

His best collegiate season came in his senior year in 1982, as he was voted co-captain to begin the season and was voted first-team All-America and first-team All Big 10.

He completed the year playing in the East–West Shrine Game and the Blue-Gray Classic.

1983

He was selected fourth overall by the Denver Broncos in the 1983 NFL Draft and was traded to the Colts as part of a deal for the Broncos to receive Colts' pick John Elway.

Although Hinton noted that his career was often overshadowed by his role in Elway's trade, his own NFL tenure saw him named to seven Pro Bowls and recognized as a two-time first-team All-Pro.

Going into the 1983 NFL Draft, Hinton was regarded as the top offensive guard and a top ten overall prospect by the majority of scouts and analysts.

The Denver Broncos selected Hinton with the fourth overall pick in the 1983 NFL Draft, making him the first guard and first offensive lineman taken.

Going into his rookie season in 1983, Hinton was named the Baltimore Colts' starting left guard and appeared in all 16 regular season games, starting 15 of them.

1984

The team traded him to the Baltimore Colts, along with quarterback Mark Herrmann and the Broncos' first round pick in the 1984 NFL Draft, for the first overall pick in the 1983 NFL Draft, quarterback John Elway.

Hinton later said that he had "a good career, but I will always be known as the guy traded for John Elway."

He went to seven Pro Bowls, six with the Colts and one with the Atlanta Falcons.

(Hinton also said "I used to always be kidded by the guys on the Colts, 'We could've had Elway instead of you.' And I'd say, 'Yeah, but you wouldn't have had anybody to block for him.'")

The Colts went on to move to Indianapolis in 1984 and Hinton started six games for them at left tackle.

1985

He returned to the starting left tackle position in 1985 and started all 16 regular season games.

1986

In 1986, under the Indianapolis Colts' new head coach Ron Meyer, he finished all 16 regular-season games at left tackle and started another 12 games at left tackle in 1987.
