In the NFL, he won a second championship in Super Bowl XXIX with the 49ers. Watters was known throughout his playing career for his outstanding receiving skills and his unique high-stepping running style, which earned him the nickname Ricky "Running" Watters from ESPN sportscaster Chris Berman. Watters appeared in the movie Any Given Sunday as a running back for the fictional Dallas Knights. Currently Watters is a motivational speaker for children who were adopted, as he was. He is also a recording artist, music producer, president and CEO of Tigero Entertainment and an author, having written the book, For Who For What, a Warrior’s Journey. Watters was the head football coach for Oak Ridge High School in Orlando, Florida until he resigned on October 1, 2013. An architecture major in college, he returned to Notre Dame in 2014 to complete the three final credits necessary for a graphic design degree.
