He signed with the Oakland Raiders as an undrafted free agent immediately following the conclusion of the 2012 NFL Draft. He played college football at Temple University.

Early years

Streater grew up in Burlington Township, New Jersey where he played high school football at Burlington Township High School.[1]

College career

Streater played his collegiate ball at Temple University after transferring from Alfred State. In his first season with the Owls, Streater caught 30 receptions for 481 yards and four touchdowns. In his senior season, playing in an almost exclusively run-based offense, Streater caught 19 balls for 401 yards and four touchdowns. Temple won its first bowl game since 1979 during Streater's senior campaign.[2]

Professional career

Oakland Raiders

After being undrafted in the 2012 NFL Draft, Streater then signed with the Oakland Raiders as an undrafted free agent. Streater was in the starting lineup for the Raiders on Monday Night Football against the San Diego Chargers to open the 2012 NFL season. He made his first career NFL reception in the first quarter, a catch of a Carson Palmer pass, and fumbled at the end of the play. Despite the way he entered the league, Streater wound up finishing fourth on the team with 584 receiving yards. He also caught 39 catches and three touchdowns.[3]

Streater had an excellent second season, with 60 catches, 888 receiving yards, and 4 touchdowns. He had a career-long 66 yard catch against the Eagles in week 8.

Kansas City Chiefs

On March 12, 2016, Streater signed a one-year, $4.8 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs.[4]

San Francisco 49ers

On September 3, 2016, Streater was traded to the 49ers for an undisclosed draft pick.[5]
