Signed by the St. Louis Rams as an undrafted free agent in April 1999, Hodgins spent four seasons as a blocking fullback for Marshall Faulk and played in two Super Bowl games (XXXIV, XXXVI) while with the Rams.
A product of San Jose’s Oak Grove High School, Hodgins compiled 178 yards and three touchdowns on 37 receptions and added 31 yards on 15 rush attempts in 78 career regular season NFL games.
