He played in Super Bowl XVII and XVIII for the Washington Redskins. Hayes played college football at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

He scored one touchdown, running for a 61 yard touchdown while playing for the Bengals against the Pittsburgh Steelers via a fake punt where he evaded two tackles. While playing for Washington, he made four rushing attempts that included a 24 yard run in 1984 following a 48 yard run in 1983. He finished his career with 168 rushing yards from 7 attempts. His 61 yard run is the longest touchdown run for a kicker or punter, and was the longest run for those positions until Reggie Hodges's 68 yard, non-touchdown run in a 2010 game against the New Orleans Saints.
