He finished his career with 65 sacks, including a career-high 14 1/2 in 2004 — the third-highest single-season total in franchise history, earning him Pro Bowl honors. Season-ending injuries struck Berry in his final three years, limiting him to 27 of 48 games. He retired from the NFL on January 21, 2010. Berry was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in 1997. After three seasons with the Colts he missed the entire 2000 NFL season, signing with the Denver Broncos in 2001. With the Broncos Berry recorded 32.5 sacks in three seasons. He then signed with the Cardinals – where he spent the last six seasons of his career. For his career Berry had 232 tackles, 17 pass deflections, and 13 forced fumbles. Berry, who played collegiately at Notre Dame, was an all-everything high school star. He started at linebacker and running back, was a starter in basketball and was state-ranked in the discus and 300-meter hurdles for the Humble High School Wildcats in Houston, Texas.
