Gesser, 28, was a record-setting quarterback at Washington State University and finished seventh in the 2002 Heisman Trophy race, the prestigious award given to college football’s most outstanding player. He has the most wins of any quarterback in WSU history.

Gesser was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Tennessee Titans in April 2003, spending the entire year with the team, but seeing no playing time. He was released by the team in 2004 and has since spent time in the Canadian Football League and the Arena Football League, most recently in the AFL with the Utah Blaze.
