Who is Kurt Warner?
Kurtis Eugene "Kurt" Warner is a former American football player. He played quarterback for three National Football League teams: the St. Louis Rams, the New York Giants, and the Arizona Cardinals. He was originally signed by the Green Bay Packers as an undrafted free agent in 1994 after playing college football at Northern Iowa. Warner would go on to be considered the best undrafted player of all time, following a 12-year career regarded as one of the greatest stories in NFL history.
Warner first attained stardom while playing for the St. Louis Rams from 1998 to 2003, where he won two NFL MVP awards in 1999 and 2001 as well as the Super Bowl MVP award in Super Bowl XXXIV. He led the 2008 Arizona Cardinals to Super Bowl XLIII, and owns the three highest single-game passing yardage totals in Super Bowl history. Warner currently holds the seventh-highest career passer rating of all-time, and the third-highest career completion percentage in NFL history with 65.5%.
In 13 career playoff games, Warner ranks first all-time in completion percentage, yards per attempt, and second in passer rating. He also holds the highest completion percentage for a single game during the regular season, at 92.3 percent, on September 20, 2009, against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He announced his retirement on January 29, 2010.
