Walters graduated with Ivy League records for career punt (972) and kick return (2,790) yards, and finished second on the conference's all-purpose yardage list (5,795 yards). He graduated fourth on Cornell's career reception (144) and receiving yardage (2,032) charts as well. Walters led the Ivy League and finished fifth nationally in all-purpose yards per game (171.6 ypg.), the second-best mark in a season at Cornell behind Marinaro's magical 1971 campaign that saw him finish as the runner-up for the Heisman Trophy. Walters earned second-team All-Ivy receiver and return specialist as a senior before embarking on an eight-year career in the NFL playing for San Diego, Minnesota, Seattle and Jacksonville. He appeared in two Super Bowls with his hometown Seattle Seahawks, becoming the third Big Red football player to earn a championship ring in 2014.
