Question

Drew Bledsoe was the No. 1 overall pick in 1993, and he started for both of the teams that will play tonight. He spent his first nine seasons with the Patriots, then started three years for the Bills. Who is the only other quarterback selected No. 1 overall in the draft who went on to start in multiple seasons for a different team in the same division?

Answer

Jameis Winston. Winston was drafted by Tampa Bay and has started 7 and 3 games for New Orleans the last two years. Three other quarterbacks selected No. 1 overall have played for multiple teams in the same division. Steve Bartkowski was drafted by Atlanta and spent his last season with the Rams (in the ‘80s, those teams were in the same division). Vinny Testaverde played for the Bucs-Panthers, Browns-Ravens and Patriots-Jets (though he played for Tampa Bay before Carolina even existed). And Sam Bradford played for Rams-Cardinals.
