Was drafted by the Tacoma Stars of the Major Indoor Soccer League in the 12th round in the 1987 draft because as GM Allan Hinton jokingly said "Because we didn't receive a letter from him that he wouldn't play for us." Bosworth had sent letters to various NFL teams stating that if they drafted him in the NFL Supplemental draft, he wouldn't report to their training camp and he wouldn't play for them.
Left the University of Oklahoma after three seasons after graduating a year ahead of his class and amid controversy over his alleged use of performance-enhancing drugs. Entered the NFL's supplemental draft in 1987 and was selected by the Seattle Seahawks.
Signed what was then the largest rookie contract in NFL history with the Seahawks in 1987. Contract covered 10 years at $11 million.
Wore jersey number 44, his college number, during the 1987 NFL pre-season and tried to take the NFL to court for the right to wear that number. He lost, and was forced to switch to number 55.
Produced and manufactured "Boz Buster" t-shirts and hats (1987)
Appeared on a Costaco's Brothers poster entitled "Land of the Boz" (1987)
