He played six seasons in the NFL, one for the Pittsburgh Steelers and five for the Kansas City Chiefs.[2] As a collegian, Keith played wide receiver at the University of Texas.

Keith's most memorable NFL receptions include catching a touchdown pass from Joe Montana in Montana's first game against his former team, the San Francisco 49ers, and catching a touchdown pass from Montana in the Chiefs' 28-20 playoff victory over the Houston Oilers in 1993.

As high school athletes, Keith and Kerry Cash led San Antonio Holmes High School to the 5A state semi-finals in football against Houston Yates in 1985 and to the 5A Texas state finals in basketball in 1987. Keith excelled in track and field as well, winning the district championship in the 200 meters and the high jump.
