He played as a linebacker in the NFL after being selected by the Colts in the sixth round of the 2003 NFL draft. A 2006 Pro Bowl choice, June was a member of the Super Bowl XLI champion Colts that defeated the Chicago Bears. During the Super Bowl championship season, June was the Colts' leading tackler. In addition to his tenure with the Colts, he played in the NFL for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Before becoming a professional, he played college football for the Michigan Wolverines and was an outstanding athlete in high school football, basketball, track and field and baseball at Anacostia High School in Washington, D.C. As a senior, he was widely regarded to be the best high school football player in the District of Columbia.

He led Anacostia to the

All-American. He was also co-class president, salutatorian and a member of the National Honor Society
.

He was widely recruited for his all-around abilities as an athlete, scholar and leader. He attracted dozens of scholarship offers but chose the

safety until an injury slowed him down late in his fifth-year senior season. Despite senior season injuries, he was named as an honorable mention All-Big Ten Conference player and was chosen to play in the Senior Bowl
.

June spent a year on

2005–06 NFL playoffs. He was a Pro Bowler that year and finished seventh in the NFL in tackles the next as the Colts won Super Bowl XLI. After four seasons with the Colts, he signed with the Buccaneers where he became the first person to displace 11-time Pro Bowler Derrick Brooks from the lineup. After two seasons with the Buccaneers, he signed with the Houston Texans
but broke his forearm during 2009 training camp and was released before the regular season. He signed with the Bears in the middle of the season only to be released after 2 weeks. Since retiring from the NFL, he has become a football coach at his high school alma mater.

Early years

June was raised in the

Thanksgiving Day, Anacostia won the DCIAA championship game, known as the Turkey Bowl, by a 40–31 score over Dunbar High School. In the game, June intercepted a pass late in the first half and returned it 92 yards for a touchdown to enable his team to take an 8–7 lead.[4] That season, he earned a selection to The Washington Post's 1995 All-Met Football team as a defensive back.[5] The following spring, he played shortstop and pitcher for the school baseball team.[6]

Prior to winning the city championship, Anacostia had played football on a barren field that was described by The Washington Post as "rugged prairie known by players across the city as the 'dust bowl'". In 1996,

Cardozo Senior High School to score a touchdown in the waning seconds to secure a victory.[2] During his junior year, he was part of the basketball team that successfully defended the Washington D.C. city high school basketball championship.[8]

As a senior, he was a preseason USA Today honorable mention All-American and preseason SuperPrep All-American as a 6-foot-1-inch (1.85 m), 190-pound (86 kg) defensive back.

Howard D. Woodson High School and senior quarterback Byron Leftwich avenged its only regular season loss (which came 28–20 at the hands of Anacostia) by a 26–22 margin.[15]

At the end of the season, he was a 1997 All-Met selection by The Washington Post and described as both the top DCIAA defensive back and as a

June played under coach Willie Stewart who coached Anacostia to seven consecutive appearances in the DCIAA championship game, including three in which June participated and the 1995 victory in which June was MVP.

As a senior, he was a member of the National Honor Society, co-class president and a candidate to be

200 meters in 21.6 seconds.[2] He was city champion in the triple jump as a junior. He was a starting small forward on the three-time DCIAA championship basketball team. He received second-team All-conference honors his senior year.[21] By the eve of the DCIAA Championship game held on Thanksgiving Day (November 27, 1997), he had 35 scholarship offers.[2] Before his senior season his dream school for its combination of athletics and academics was the University of North Carolina.[1] He was recruited by top football programs such as Syracuse, and Miami and his early list of top five programs was Michigan, Ohio State, Florida, North Carolina and Penn State.[22] Later, he replaced Penn State with Miami on his five school visitation list.[2] He visited Ohio State in mid-December as they prepared for the 1998 Sugar Bowl.[23] He visited Florida in mid-January 1998.[10][24] June's final decision was a choice between Florida and Michigan and he chose Michigan on January 13, 1998,[20][25] although there were reports that he had signed with Notre Dame.[26]

He was part of the nation's number one recruiting class for the undefeated defending national champion Wolverines. The team recruited numerous top 50-rated players on both offense: Justin Fargas, Marquise Walker, David Terrell and Drew Henson, and defense: Victor Hobson, Dave Armstrong, June, Bennie Joppru, and Larry Foote.[27][28][29][30] The All-Met Offensive Player of the Year, Walter Cross, was also a member of this recruiting class.[31] The class included a total of six Parade All-Americans: Fargas, Henson, Walker, Terrell, June and Hayden Epstein.[28][29] Before matriculating to Michigan he participated in the July 1998 D.C. Coaches Association All-Star game as well as the Baltimore-Washington Beltway Classic.[32] As a high schooler with aspirations of making a mark in the NFL and who kept a Deion Sanders poster in his bedroom, he left his mark by writing "Big Time 1" on things whenever the opportunity arose.[11] June graduated as salutatorian.[33]

College career

June played college football at the University of Michigan, where he switched from

rivalry game against Ohio State on November 20, 1999.[39] June also recovered a fumble to set up a scoring drive for the final Michigan touchdown.[47] The season ended in an overtime victory against Alabama in the 2000 Orange Bowl.[48]

During the summer before his

strong safety position, he suffered a season-ending anterior cruciate ligament injury in his right knee that required reconstructive surgery.[39] He spent the season in rehabilitation with two other teammates who had knee injuries and was unable to run for six months.[49] His absence at the safety position caused Fargas to switch from running back to safety that season.[50] Before returning to football, he was involved in a public altercation in spring 2001. During the altercation, a Michigan teammate was identified as having punched someone in the face, and June was charged with failing to obey an officer's order for refusing to leave the scene.[51]

The

Big Ten team with an undefeated conference record.[58][59] In the next game, his fourth quarter interception led to a comeback victory against Iowa to stay unbeaten in conference.[60] In the following game on November 3 against Michigan State, Michigan's conference record fell to 4–1 as June left the game with another injury to his right knee.[61][62] June started all but one game and finished the season fourth on the team in tackles.[63][64]

In his senior season for the

Michigan – Michigan State Paul Bunyan Trophy game against Michigan State on November 2,[72] but participated in two plays during the subsequent Michigan–Minnesota Little Brown Jug game against Minnesota on November 9.[73] June was healthy in time for the 2003 Outback Bowl against Florida, where he recorded a season-high nine tackles.[74][75]
Over the course of the season, June had 36 tackles, 17 assists, four tackles for loss, and two sacks. He had 102 career tackles and 36 career assists, 10 tackles for loss, and six sacks.

June was selected as an honorable mention All-Big Ten performer by both the coaches and the media, despite his late season injury.

B.J. Askew, and Joppru.[77] At the 2003 NFL Scouting Combine, June ran the slowest 40-yard dash (4.68 seconds) of all the free safeties.[78] June was one of six Wolverines drafted in the 2003 NFL draft and the first Michigan safety drafted since Corwin Brown in the 1993 NFL draft.[79][80]

Professional career

Indianapolis Colts

On April 27, June was selected by the Indianapolis Colts in the sixth round (25th pick) of the 2003 NFL Draft with the expectation that he would play weak side linebacker.

After losing to the

passing downs.[96] In week 5, June had a team-high ten tackles and his first interception in a 35–14 victory over the Oakland Raiders.[97] In week 15, June returned an interception 71 yards to the four-yard-line where he stepped out of bounds with 59 seconds remaining in the game at the RCA Dome, the Colts' home stadium. This prompted the fans to chant for Peyton Manning to enter the game to attempt to tie Dan Marino's single-season touchdown pass record. Since the Colts led the game 20–10 and had clinched the AFC South division, Manning took a knee instead.[98] Coach Dungy's scheme is designed so that the weakside linebacker is supposed to make the most tackles,[94] and June was the Colts' leading tackler by a wide margin that season.[99] June started every game that season.[100]

June's 2004 season had been described as average,

outside linebacker.[124] Despite missing three games due to injury, June finished third on the team with 109 tackles and led the team with 5 interceptions.[125] He was also the team's nominee for the Ed Block Courage Award in 2005.[126]

June had two surgeries to repair his hernia in February 2006.

2006–07 NFL playoffs, he helped the Colts win Super Bowl XLI.[143] June started every game for the Colts during the season and the playoffs.[144] When the free agent signing period began on March 2, June and several unrestricted free agents were left unsigned.[145]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

June was considered to be a fast linebacker[146][147] and a specialized talent with a better likelihood of success in a defensive scheme that was built around speed rather than size.[148] On March 17, 2007, he signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who used the defensive scheme designed by Dungy.[149][150] The New York Giants and Colts were also interested in signing June.[144] The contract was believed to be a three-year, $12 million agreement,[144] but some later reports claim it was a four-year, $17 million contract.[151]

In Tampa, June joined a defense that had been among the top 10 in the league for a decade until the 2006 Buccaneers faltered with a 4–12 record.[152][153] In 2006, they fell from 1st to 17th in team defense.[154] When June arrived it was fairly clear that Derrick Brooks would not be changing from his weakside linebacker position and that June would be moving to strongside linebacker.[155][156] When he became a Buccaneer, he stood out for his dedication and enthusiasm. For example, when the Colts had their Super Bowl ring ceremony, June flew to Indianapolis and back without missing any Buccaneers practice time.[157] As strongside linebacker he beat out Ryan Nece as the 2007 Buccaneers starter,[158] although he was considered the heir apparent to 13-year veteran and 10-time Pro Bowler Brooks at the weakside position.[159][160][161] June again wore the #59 as a Buccaneer.[162] Because of his weakside linebacker and safety experience, June was expected to remain in the game during passing situations unlike most strongside linebackers.[163][164] June also expected defenses to run at him because at 6 feet (1.8 m), 227 pounds (103 kg) he was small for an NFL strongside linebacker and one of the smallest linebackers in the NFL.[165][166]

June recorded an interception and touchdown return in the Buccaneers' third preseason game against the

father time, avoided the media after the game, but June and other teammates defended him.[171] The press was much more amenable to having June play more and claimed that the defense was back up to its prior level of excellence with the change.[172] Over the course of the 2007 season June and Brooks divided time at linebacker during nickel defense coverage.[173][174]

June's first regular season interception for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers came on September 16, 2007.

June made his first interception during his second game as a Buccaneer. It led to a touchdown scoring drive during a 31–14 victory against the

2007–08 NFL playoffs matchup with the New York Giants,[194] which the team lost.[195] June finished his first season with the Bucs with 69 tackles and one interception. June was part of a defense that finished the season ranked second in the league.[196]

June had offseason foot surgery in February 2008.[197] During the opening game of the season, Brooks suffered a hamstring injury and removed himself from the game in the third quarter, which fueled speculation during the following week that he would miss the first start of his fourteen-year career and that June would start on the weakside.[198] Brooks, however, made his 194th-consecutive start the following week.[199] In a story not published until four weeks later, Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson claims that June attempted to injure him in a November 16 game.[200] June made his first interception of the season and second as a Buccaneer on a Drew Brees pass that was tipped by Ronde Barber in the twelfth game of the season as Tampa earned its fourth consecutive victory to improve its record to 9–3 on November 30 against the New Orleans Saints.[201][202][203] After the Buccaneers lost their final four games to miss the playoffs, the Buccaneers replaced Jon Gruden and Bruce Allen with Raheem Morris and Mark Dominik as head coach and general manager.[204] The team subsequently released five veteran players in a move that was said to be unrelated to the salary cap.[205][206] June was released by the Buccaneers on February 25, 2009, along with Derrick Brooks, Ike Hilliard, Warrick Dunn and Joey Galloway.[207] The transaction avoided a $2 million roster bonus for June.[206]

Houston Texans

June was signed by the

injured reserve due to his injured forearm.[212] He was released with an injury settlement on September 3, making him a free agent.[213]

Chicago Bears

June signed with the Chicago Bears on December 1, 2009 [214] June was signed as a replacement for Lance Briggs who had a knee injury. He played on special teams on December 6, against the St. Louis Rams, but was inactive the following week against the Green Bay Packers. He was waived on December 14 and replaced on the 53-man roster by practice squad member James Marten when Briggs returned to good health.[215][216]

Omaha Nighthawks

June was signed by the

United Football League on September 8, 2010.[217] In June 2011, the Nighthawks dropped several players with NFL experience, including June.[218]
