Question
Since the merger in 1970, what two quarterbacks have led the league in passing yards after previously starting games for three other teams? They were both originally fourth-round draft picks, selected one year apart.
Answer
Steve Beuerlein and Rich Gannon. Gannon was drafted in 1987. He started games for Minnesota, Washington and Kansas City before passing for 4,688 yards with the Raiders in 2002. Beuerlein was drafted in 1988. He started games for the Raiders, Cowboys, Cardinals and Jaguars (that’s four different teams – one more than Gannon) before passing for a league-high 4,437 yards with Carolina in 1999.
