He won a SB Ring as a backup to Eli in New York. Guess his pro career never panned out. I mean he never was going to be a starter but at least he could have been a competent backup.

He retired, played some arena ball and was most recently the commissioner of the UIFL.

made a comeback at over 300 pounds and put in a MVP season

Pillsbury Throwboy


One of the great nicknames of all time in the SEC. I would also chuckle when he was referred to as "J-Load"

4 years as an NFL backup is nothing to sneeze at, really.

I think he also works at Highlands as QB coach. He was fun to watch at Commonwealth. Guy had a cannon of an arm, I've never seen a football thrown so hard.
I remember one game where he and David Greene of Georgia each threw for over 500 yards. UK didn't win a lot more during that time, but it was fun to watch.

Lives in Ft. Thomas, KY...works with an indoor football league...volunteers as a QB coach for Ft. Thomas Highlands Football Team. He has been on Kentucky Sports Radio with Matt Jones and Ryan, tells some great stories during his high school, college, and NY Giant playing days. Jokes about his weight, does not bother him, he said he loves to eat.
