Question

What quarterback, drafted with the No. 1 overall selection, never threw 20 touchdown passes in a season for the team that picked him, but threw 20-plus touchdowns in a season for three other teams?

Answer

Jeff George. He was picked by the Colts in 1990 but never threw more than 16 touchdowns for them. He put up better numbers with the Falcons, Raiders and Vikings. The list of quarterbacks who’ve thrown 20-plus touchdowns for three teams includes three others who were chosen with No. 1 overall picks (but each threw 20-plus with their original team): Vinny Testaverde (Bucs, Ravens, Jets), Drew Bledsoe (Patriots, Bills, Cowboys) and Carson Palmer (Bengals, Raiders, Cardinals).
