Early years
Street attended Liberty High School in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. He recorded 49 receptions for 822 yards and eight touchdowns as a senior, while adding two interceptions and 50 tackles as a starting cornerback on defense. He helped lead Liberty to a 15-1 record and the PIAA Class AAAA championship, and had a vital touchdown in the team's 28-21 overtime victory in the title game against Bethel Park.
He was also a track and field standout, winning District 11 champion in the long jump, where he set a school and district record, reaching 7.22 meters. He was also timed at 11.3 seconds over 100 meters.
Considered a two-star recruit by Rivals.com, he accepted a scholarship offer from the University of Pittsburgh.
College career
In 2009, Street redshirted as a freshman. In 2010, he appeared in all 13 games, starting four. He had 25 catches for 318 yards (12.7 avg.) and two touchdowns, highlighted by a 79-yard screen pass for touchdown against Syracuse.
In 2011, Street started all 13 games, he had 53 catches for 754 yards (14.2 avg.) and two touchdowns on the year, including reaching 100-yard receiving in a game three times. In 2012, on his way to being named a second-team All-BIG-EAST selection, he posted career numbers with 73 catches for 975 yards (13.4 avg.) and five touchdowns. His 11 catches against Louisville marked a career-high and were the most by a Pitt player since 2006.
In 2013, he caught 51 passes for 854 yards (16.7 avg.) and seven touchdowns. He earned third-team All-ACC honors. He set a school record with 202 career receptions, surpassing Latef Grim's 178 set from 1998 to 2000.
Dallas Cowboys
Looking to improve their wide receiver depth after the release of Miles Austin, the Dallas Cowboys traded their fifth (158th overall) and one of their seventh round draft choices (229th overall) to the Detroit Lions, in order to move up in the fifth round (146th overall) of the 2014 NFL Draft and select Street. As a rookie, he was active in all of the games, but was rarely used as the team's fifth wide receiver. At the fifth wide receiver spot Street finished the year with seven targets, two receptions for 18 yards.
In 2015, there was talk of a notable improvement in his game, but he suffered an ankle injury in training camp that stunted his progress and sidelined him at different times. He struggled with incompletions, fumbles and penalties, so the team traded for wide receiver Brice Butler after Dez Bryant broke his foot in the season opener. Although Street was given the opportunity to establish himself as a starter during Bryant's absence, Butler passed him on the depth chart. Street hauled in a 25-yard touchdown pass against the New York Giants. It was his first career touchdown and he caught it in style. The ball was thrown by Matt Cassel, who was filling in for Tony Romo during an injury, and the ball was thrown to Street slightly out of bounds, but still managed to reach out and catch it just in bounds. He finished the year with only 13 targets, 7 receptions for 114 yards and one touchdown.
In the 2016 training camp, he was passed on the depth chart by other wide receivers. He was released on September 3.
