Professional career
Dallas Cowboys
Looking to improve their wide receiver depth after the release of Miles Austin, the Dallas Cowboys traded their fifth (158th overall) and one of their seventh round draft choices (229th overall) to the Detroit Lions, in order to move up in the fifth round (146th overall) of the 2014 NFL Draft and select Street.[4] As a rookie he was active in all of the games, but was rarely used as the team's fifth wide receiver.
