Megatron is the best example of a humble man with generational talent and million dollar smile this man is the ultimate teammate now and forever is the model for all young men
Best part of this is seeing Calvin's son look him with such a big smile. Little guy has no idea the significance of this moment but this will stick with him forever
This dude was a freak of nature. His speed, wing span. Size, . Hands, route running abilities. The combination of these will never be matched again. I hope before you comment you watched him or you go back and check him out. Unbelievable.
As a Packers fan, besides Randy Moss, this is the receiver I feared the most. Megatron was an absolute beast. Calvin Johnson and Barry Sanders deserved more.
I'm a die hard Lions fan (god help me). I don't know if people understand that even though this dude is a First Ballot HOF'r, he's still Criminally Underrated in my book. Double and Triple coverage on 75% of snaps. When you choose to play him one one one, you have the Cowboys game for 329 yards. STUD!
As one of Calvin Johnson's employees, I would have to say he is the most humble, respectful, most suave gentleman I have ever met.... Working with him along with his teammate Rob Sims the two of them have character that surpass anybody on this Earth and to think.... They can act anyway they want because of who they are but they choose to be the most positive proactive and impactful people on this planet. Proud to call them teammates and Friends!
Worked with him for long time at Primitiv Cannabis Niles..... He was there on a weekly basis and not only that was very Hands-On and very very kind to my children and my friends children....this guy is a real 'hero type"
Whoever suggested to do these surprise HOF presentation, is a genius. I was never a Lions fan but was always in awe of special players like Calvin Johnson. So happy he was a first ballot HOF. Damn, I love this game!
I love Calvin's reaction when he opened the door. He knew this day was coming. I'm happy for Megatron. He deserved better than Detroit but he's in the hall of fame now.
CJ was my favorite player to wear a Lions jersey! He played his heart out, never complained and was an amazingly humble human being! Even in a disaterous football franchise he was one of the only bright spots!! He is a perfect example of how a football player should conduct themselves!! HOF honor is well deserved!! CJ aka Megatron forever!!
Calvin, like his fellow Lion Barry, is a class act! Respect from this Vikings fan! I'm glad to see that is not one of the many ex-NFL players who went broke after leaving the game.
Ladies and gentleman: This man has more receiving yards per game than any other hall of fame wide receiver, he's had more receiving yards in a single game than any other hall of fame receiver and more receiving yards in a single season than any other receiver.
@@bean181 u remember the season he had 5 different qbs and still leading the league in tds lol 5 qbs!!!! It didn't matter who was throwing him the ball. Guy was an absolute freak of nature.
Bro at that 9 minute mark where he got choked up....I freaking lost it. 😭😭And that's cus I'm a Texan fan, but I respect GREATNESS. I salute you Megatron🙏
What a great person! What a great player! No one is more deserving! This is the type of person that makes others better! Thanks for the memories MEGATRON!
This mans work ethic is unmatched! Flying all day through different weather conditions while hungry only to fly back home and film new episodes of What Would You Do?. Respect to the utmost degree Sir.
One of the most humble players to ever play, when he didn’t need to be! He could’ve talked and easily backed it up, but he let his work on the field do the talking.
Man we passed on a hof and great man like Calvin but I’m glad he ended up w the lions Detroit as a city needs a sb and heroes...much love from this raider from the only nation☠️well deserved cj
Calvin Johnson was a beast from the second he stepped onto Bobby Dodd until he retired from the Lions. Class, great work ethic, great teammate, and despite the team he was on, a true winner.
Calvin Johnson was what a legend is supposed to be. Never once gave up, worked his as off. The definitive professional, quiet humble and so much more. So much respect from Dallas!
@@joshuaa1605 I disagree, he’s got the ring now and he’s been had the stats. Fortunately for him he left Detroit and it paid off. Calvin and Barry probably should’ve done the same
I love this guy I didn’t get to watch jerry rice I saw Randy Moss and he’s last stop at the 49ers but not he’s best but I grew up watching Calvin Johnson I’ve never seen anything like him well Deserved I feel like all the 2000 babies and up Megatron was Are guy what a legend
Been a Lions fan since childhood, originally From Toledo, but grew up a Detroit fan!! Always and forever will remember watching CJ, Barry, Spielmen , etc. We have had alot of greats, hopefully the organization gets it together soon !! LIONS FOREVER
Awesome!! you can tell what it meant to him. This guy is a true legend, he is not somebody that just complied stats, if you watched him, you knew you were watching the best WR in the league, Congrats from a Rams fan
Calvin (Megatron) Johnson you were so fun to watch. Your Heart, Hard Work, God given natural abilities will forever be remembered. I wish you and your Family, Health & Happiness.
Won’t find anyone more deserving. A man of tremendous skill, output, and character. He could’ve demanded a trade or retired much sooner. Instead he gave every ounce he had, even when the tank seemed empty. I consider myself lucky to have been able to watch him play every Sunday after moving to SE Michigan
Congrats Megatron . Enjoyed watching you play and dominating defensive backs every Sunday and doing it with class along the way . This is well deserved because you were another player who changed the game of football .
The lions had two of the most talented players to ever live in Barry Sanders and calvin Johnson and couldn't do a God damn thing with them...they both deserved better
I'm so happy for him big fan of his work he gave the game everything he had trust me I seen this guy's hands a lot of injuries he battled through all that hard work paid off congratulations
When Ryan Reiss won the World Series of Poker, wearing a Calvin Johnson Jersey, it might have been the proudest moment in Detroit Lions History.... And even more telling.... Even people who barely knew anything about football, knew who Calvin Johnson was, knew who's Jersey he was wearing, and knew he was Megatron.... Very very deserving... I always wondered, if Calvin Johnson would get the HOF he deserved...... He did.
Something about goats that retired in their primes in Detroit young and still become 1st ballot hall of Famer just like Barry Sanders and now Calvin Johnson congrats now this tells u how bad the lions organization is ran
Congratulations Calvin very proud of your accomplishment. You're most deserving with all the hard work you put forth. I work with your Aunt in Utah she's kind of responsible for turning me into a Calvin fan. God bless
True definition of a great champion and most of all a great man... Congrats megatron you stayed in Detroit when most would have left and that says alot!

Both would've probably shattered their respective positions record's if they didn't retire early.
And yet Matt Stafford toughed it out and now he's gonna play for a team with some talent, no excuses now.
the most humble superstar of all time
next to Barry Sanders of course!!
Yup.
He's humble for sure but most humble of all time. Yikes at that claim.
That would be WARRICK DUNN
There are a bunch of humble superstars. Lol how can you out humble humble?
I doubt Calvin will ever see my comment but congrats dude, you're absolutely deserving of being in the HoF.
The first Decepticon ever elected to the Hall of Fame.
Gotta respect Calvin Johnson throughout his NFL career, broke records and didn't have any media drama
MEGATRON!!!!!
this closed a major chapter in his life you can see it in his eyes damn detroit
David Baker seems to be the perfect description of a good man. Just all around.
I can’t explain why but I love this guy
Baker is the man
Agreed, I really love watching these videos and it’s obvious that he cares about them.
Mountain of a man too. A gentle giant.
One day, David Baker needs to be inducted into the HOF. I love that guy.
