14 seasons in the NFL. I'd say he did alright. His brain was better than his physical abilities, so he only briefly

He exceeded many expectations. He was small w/o a great/strong arm.

MisterFundamentals

14 years and multiple teams equals many chances. He was a great backup. Nothing

With the right coach he would’ve been better than Troy Aikman!

I think he played for Andy Reid in Philadelphia. Can’t get better coaching than

He had Gruden as OC in Philly.
