John Brown
John Brown was drafted by the Arizona Cardinals in the third round of the 2014 NFL Draft, Brown showcased his ability to stretch the field early on. His breakthrough season came in 2015 when he notched over 1000 receiving yards and seven touchdowns.
Brown’s stint with the Cardinals was marked by consistent production but also by struggles with injuries. He signed with the Baltimore Ravens for the 2018 season, where he led the team in receiving yards, despite a mid-season quarterback change.
Brown then joined the Buffalo Bills in 2019, where he had a standout season with over 1000 yards receiving and six touchdowns. Brown then bounced around with a few teams in 2021 before landing back in Buffalo.

Steve Beuerlein
Steve Beuerlein had a long and solid NFL career as a quarterback, spanning 17 seasons from 1987 to 2003.
He was drafted by the Raiders, and while he found success with several teams, his most impressive stint was with the Carolina Panthers from 1996 to 2000, including a Pro Bowl season in 1999 where he threw for a league-leading 4436 yards with 36 touchdowns.
Known for his resilience, Beuerlein moved around a lot during his career, playing for five different teams and amassing over 24,000 passing yards and 147 touchdowns.

Blaine Gabbert
Blaine Gabbert was drafted in the first round, 10th overall, by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2011 NFL Draft. Gabbert’s time with the Jaguars was short-lived (and largely unsuccessful), and he was traded to the 49ers in 2014. He’s also played for the Cardinals, Buccaneers and Titans.
While Gabbert has not received any major individual awards or Pro Bowl selections, he does have the distinction of being a part of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ Super Bowl LV championship team, serving as the backup to Tom Brady.
Though largely seen as a journeyman backup quarterback, Gabbert has found ways to contribute when called upon and has carved out a lengthy career in that role. His career stats are modest, but he has managed to sustain a long career in the NFL, which is a feat in itself.
Mike Glennon
Mike Glennon is a quarterback who played in the NFL from 2013 to 2022. Drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft, Glennon started his rookie season as the backup, but later started 13 games.
He showed promise, throwing for 2608 yards and 19 touchdowns with only 9 interceptions in his rookie season. However, Glennon found himself in backup roles in the subsequent years, with stops at the Chicago Bears, Arizona Cardinals, Oakland Raiders, and Jacksonville Jaguars.
Over his career, he threw for over 7000 yards and 47 touchdowns.
Jason Babin
Jason Babin was selected by the Houston Texans in the first round of the 2004 NFL Draft, 27th overall. He was a defensive end who played for various teams over his 12-year NFL career, including stints with the Texans, Seattle Seahawks, Kansas City Chiefs, Tennessee Titans, Philadelphia Eagles, Jacksonville Jaguars, and New York Jets.
Babin’s career highlights include two Pro Bowl selections in 2010 and 2011. In the 2011 season with the Eagles, he had a remarkable year, recording 18 sacks and was named 2nd Team All-Pro. His final career stats include 374 total tackles, 64.5 sacks, and 14 forced fumbles.
Babin’s aggressive playing style and ability to pressure the quarterback made him a significant presence on the defensive line throughout his career.
