My Take
Testaverde is a study in endurance. A Brooklyn kid who won the Heisman at Miami and went first overall in the 1987 draft, he carried the weight of being the chosen one. But what truly impresses me is what came after: twenty-one NFL seasons, an almost absurd number in a sport that chews quarterbacks up and spits them out. He bounced between teams, was written off again and again, and kept throwing. The most-hyped prospect turned out to be the most durable survivor. I'll always value that stubborn longevity over flashy stats. He's a craftsman's craftsman, and I respect him deeply.
