Foxworth began his career in the NFL after being drafted by the Denver Broncos in the third round, with the 97th overall pick of the 2005 NFL draft.[6][7] The Broncos traded Foxworth to the Atlanta Falcons in September 2008 for a conditional seventh-round pick in the 2009 NFL draft.[8][9]

On the first day of training camp for the 2010 season, Foxworth tore his ACL,[10] causing him to miss the entire season.[9] Foxworth's knee problems continued into 2011, with the Ravens putting him on the injured reserve list after playing only two games, ending his season early.[9][11] In May 2012, Foxworth announced that he planned to retire.

NFL Players Association

In addition to his work on the field, Foxworth has also held a number of positions with the NFL Players Association.[12] In 2007, the Broncos elected Foxworth as an NFLPA player representative, and the following year he became the youngest player to become vice president of the NFLPA Executive Committee.[12]

In 2012, Foxworth was elected president of the NFLPA without opposition.[12]
