Jimmy Conrad is arguably the best defender in Kansas City history.
He was named the 2005 MLS Defender of the Year. He earned four MLS Best XI nominations (2004-2006, 2008). He served as captain of the club and also earned 27 caps for the USMNT.
There’s no denying Conrad has quite the resume.
The defender is one of ten players to log 200 or more appearances for Sporting Kansas City, and ranks seventh all time in minutes played for the club. He also has the record for most goals scored by a defender (17).
While the Wizards didn’t quite achieve MLS Cup glory in 2004 or throughout the rest of his tenure. Jimmy did help lead the club to the 2004 US Open Cup title.
Jimmy Conrad either wore or was issued this jersey during the 2009 MLS season.
