Named one of "Good Guys in Sports" in 2003 by Sporting News

He started the 2004 season as a holdout with the Buccaneers. While he waited for a pay raise and worked out on his own, the Chargers traded for him. They exchanged a 3rd and 5th round draft pick in the 2005 draft. In 2005, he was the team's 2nd leading receiver behind only tight end Antonio Gates, totaling 70 catches, 917 yards, and a career-high 9 touchdown receptions.

On December 4, 2005, in a game against the Oakland Raiders, He became the 13th player in NFL history to record 800 career receptions. He is also 20th on the all-time list for yardage by a receiver.

He was selected in the 12th round of the 1991 NFL draft by the Washington Redskins. Unfortunately, he never saw the field in a Redskins' uniform and was cut after the 1991 season. He signed with the Browns in 1992. He saw his first regular season action, but only recorded 1 catch for 8 yards. His 1993 season wasn't much better in terms of catches, but he did score his first ever touchdown. He would score 3 more before the 1993 season was over. His production steadily increased during his time in Cleveland. Although he only started 5 games in 1995, he racked up 56 catches, 709 yards, and 4 touchdowns. His production on the field was so impressive that the Jacksonville Jaguars signed him to his first big contract and made him their #1 receiver.

He was signed by the Buccaneers for the 2002 season to complement former New York Jets wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson. He became the team's primary receiver late in the 2003 season mainly due to a dispute between Johnson and the Buccaneers organization, which ultimately ended in Johnson being "paid to stay away" and traded to the Dallas Cowboys. Despite the incident, Keenan McCardell and the Buccaneers would go on to win Super Bowl XXXVII, beating the AFC Champion Oakland Raiders 48-21.
