== NFL Career ==
Hawkins was drafted in the second round (43rd overall pick) of the [[1998 NFL Draft]] by the [[Cincinnati Bengals]]. In his rookie season he started all 16 of the Bengals games at cornerback and had a spectacular season as he made 71 total tackles, one sack, three interceptions and 15 defensed passes. That season would end up being his best as a Cincinnati player, the next six seasons for Hawkins saw a continuing reduced role in the Bengals defense and in 2003, when he became a free agent, the Bengals did not resign him. The next year Hawkins spent playing cornerback for the [[Carolina Panthers]]. In 2005, due to injury's to the [[New England Patriots]] secondary, Hawkins was signed by the Patriots in the late part of the regular season. He ended up starting four of the Patriots last five games of 2005. In 2006, he played in all but two games(with 12 starts) for the Patriots and made 71 total tackles and one interception.
