Tim Toone was a two-time All-American, set multiple school records, won a Big Sky Championship, and was drafted as Mr. Irrelevant during his Weber State football career from 2006-09. 

He still ranks as Weber State’s all-time leader in career receiving yards and career receptions, holds the record for longest punt return, and ranks in the all-time top 10 in several other categories. 

In his 46 career games at Weber State, Toone had 206 receptions for 3,607 yards and 29 touchdowns, all still school records. He also still ranks third in WSU history in career punt returns, is sixth in all-purpose yards, and 12th in career scoring. 

He earned All-American honors and was named to the All-Big Sky first-team in 2008 and 2009, and helped the Wildcat to the FCS Playoffs both seasons. 

He signed at Weber State in 2003 and sat out the year as a red shirt, before serving a two-year church mission. After his mission, he returned to Weber State under coach Ron McBride. As a sophomore in 2007, he tied for the most touchdown catches in the Big Sky. 

As a junior in 2008, he earned first-team All-Big Sky honors and helped lead the Wildcats to the Big Sky Championship and a trip to the second round of the FCS Playoffs. He had 84 receptions for 1,525 yards and seven touchdowns, still a school record for most receiving yards in a season. 

During his senior year in 2009, he again earned first-team All-Big Sky honors as he had 83 catches for 1,109 yards and 10 touchdowns. He also had 378 punt return yards, second most in school history, with three punt return touchdowns, tied for the most ever. In a win against Sacramento State in 2009, Toone returned a punt 95 yards for a touchdown, still the longest punt return in Big Sky Conference history. He helped Weber State to a second-straight FCS Playoff appearance. 

Toone was selected with the 255th overall and last pick of the 2010 NFL Draft by the Detroit Lions, earning him the title of Mr. Irrelevant. He spent the 2010 season and part of 2011 on the practice squad with the Lions, and also spent time on the practice squads with the Buffalo Bills, Denver Broncos, and Atlanta Falcons.
