About Trent Green

Trent Jason Green (born July 9, 1970) is an American former professional football quarterback who played in the National Football League (NFL) for 15 seasons. He was a member of five teams during his career, most notably the Kansas City Chiefs. Green played college football for the Indiana Hoosiers and was selected by the San Diego Chargers in the eighth round of the 1993 NFL draft. He did not see any significant playing time until his fifth season in 1998 with the Washington Redskins when he became the team's starter. The following year, Green joined the St. Louis Rams to become their starter, but after suffering a season-ending injury during the preseason, he was replaced by Kurt Warner, leading to the team winning Super Bowl XXXIV. He spent one more season in St. Louis as Warner's backup before joining the Chiefs. During his six seasons as Kansas City's starter, Green led the team to one division title and two playoff appearances while earning two Pro Bowl selections. Green held his last starting position with the Miami Dolphins and returned to the Rams for his final season. He led the Chiefs to a 13–3 record and a first-round bye in the playoffs. During his first season in Kansas City, Green struggled. Green tied the record for the longest career pass play in NFL history (99 yards) on December 22, 2002, on a pass to Marc Boerigter in a game against the San Diego Chargers. Green's breakout season came just in time, as he became an unrestricted free agent after the 1998 season.
