Updated: Wikipedia source

David Carr (American football)

David Duke Carr (born July 21, 1979) is an American former professional football quarterback who played in the National Football League (NFL) for 11 seasons. Carr played college football for the Fresno State Bulldogs, winning the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award and Sammy Baugh Trophy in 2001. He was selected first overall by the Houston Texans in the 2002 NFL draft and was the franchise's first draft selection. Carr spent his first five seasons as the Texans' starter, but struggled with consistent play. As a rookie, he also set the NFL season record for sacks taken. After being released by Houston, Carr spent the remainder of his career as a backup for the Carolina Panthers, New York Giants, and San Francisco 49ers, winning Super Bowl XLVI with the Giants. Carr later served as the offensive coordinator at Bakersfield Christian High School and was an analyst for NFL Network.
