With the Panthers, he stepped into the 2nd receiver spot when Steve Smith was injured. He filled in nicely, catching 47 catches for 754 yards and 5 touchdowns. With high expectations for Colbert in the 2005 season, he struggled catching 25 passes for 282 yards and just two touchdowns.
In 2006, however, Colbert was inactive most of the second half of the season. In 2007, Colbert had a mediocre season, and was placed on Injured Reserve at the end of the season.
He attended the University of Southern California, where he was a star wide receiver. In his final year at USC, Colbert made an unbelievable catch while he was interfered by two defenders in the Rose Bowl against the University of Michigan. Colbert's 149 yards in the Rose Bowl were a career high. Het left USC as the school's all-time leader in pass receptions, passing Kareem Kelly with 207.
Colbert caught at least one pass in his final 36 games. He earned All-Pac-10 second-team honors his senior year and finished second on the team with 69 receptions for 1,013 yards and nine touchdowns.
