Chris started his semi-pro career in Maine as a WR for the Brewer Hurricanes in 1997, and scored his first career TD vs. the Legendary Marlborough Shamrocks that season. The next season Chris would move to QB and earn his teams "Offensive Player of the Year" award while averaging 100 yards rushing & 150 yards passing per game. In 1999 he would earn the teams "MVP" award while leading his team to the MSFL Championship game. The MSFL would then collapse and Chris joined the Maine Pride/Bulls where he would excel at defensive back. Over the next few seasons he did triple duty as Cornerback, Safety and Monster Back, (weak side LB). The highlight of his career was the 2001 & 2002 season with the Southern Maine Raging Bulls. In 2001 the Bulls stormed the league going undefeated on the way to the Championship, winning 42-7 over the Vermont Ice Storm. In 2002 the Bulls Moved up to "AAA", and in the opening game of the season, the Bulls defeated the reigning "AAA" Champion Boston Bandits. Later that season, the Bulls were invited to the Harvest Bowl's National Tournament, where they defeated the tournaments #1 seed, the Glove City Colonials, 23-22 out in Albany, NY. They then went on to defeat the Delco Cougars from New Jersey before eventually falling to Lowell Nor'easter in a very tight semi-final game. The Bulls finished the season ranked at # 6 overall in the country in the "AAA" division. Chris went on to get another all-star selection in 2004, before retiring his cleats at the end of the 2006 season. His last play on the field was a spectacular play as he blitzed up the middle to squash the RB in the back field on a goal line stand in the “AA" semi-finals game.

In October 2005 Chris was cast by General Mill Corporation, to play a part in there newest Wheaties commercial. "Flutie Magic" was a recreation of the memorable Miracle in Miami play featuring Massachusetts native Doug Flutie.
