Qadry "The Missile" Ismail (born November 8, 1970) is a former National Football League wide receiver for the Minnesota Vikings, Green Bay Packers, Miami Dolphins, New Orleans Saints, Baltimore Ravens, and the Indianapolis Colts in a 10-year career that lasted from 1993 to 2002. Ismail won Super Bowl XXXV with Baltimore in the 2000 season.
Growing up in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania and attending Elmer L. Meyers Junior/Senior High School while living with his grandmother, Qadry Ismail would find himself being named the Inaugural recipient of the Martin Luther King Youth Leadership Award among several Meyers records and honors, including 3X All State and All American honors.
Ismail would go on to star in football and track at Syracuse University. Some of his achievements while at Syracuse University include: 5X Bowl winner, 1991 College Football All-America Team as a Kick Returner, 1993 Japan Bowl All-Star Game MVP, All-Big East 1st Team wide receiver and conference 2nd team kick returner.
Drafted by the Minnesota Vikings, with the 52nd pick in the Second Round of the 1993 NFL Draft, Qadry Ismail became the highest draft pick from Syracuse since Art Monk. In 1999, Qadry was voted Number 22 on the list of top 100 athletes by the Citizen’s Voice, a Wyoming Valley Newspaper. Ismail had some success in Minnesota, including 696 yards and five touchdowns in 1995, but not enough for the Vikings to want to keep him long term.
