Professional Career

Brian Griese was drafted by the Denver Broncos in the third round of the 1998 NFL Draft. His Wonderlic Test score was a 39. Griese began his professional career as a backup to John Elway. As a rookie, Griese was a member of the Super Bowl champion Broncos, though he primarily watched from the sidelines. Elway retired after that season, and Griese then became a starting quarterback, earning a place in the 2000 Pro Bowl. Griese's performance declined after injuries and rumors of alcoholism and he was traded first to the Miami Dolphins and then the Tampa Bay Buccanneers where he now starts.
