Will Furrer

As a quarterback with Virginia Tech, Furrer became one of the top quarterbacks in school history and he is currently ranked third on its list of all-time career passing leaders. Finishing with a career record of 16–18–1 (.471), Furrer is, as of 2013, the last full-time starting quarterback to have a losing record for Virginia Tech, however his accomplishments at the university led to his induction into its sports hall of fame in 2015.

Furrer was selected by the Chicago Bears in the fourth round of the 1992 NFL Draft, the fifth quarterback taken and 107th overall pick. When he was drafted he was quoted as saying "One of my biggest problems will be trying to figure out whether to call Mike Singletary mister or sir."

Furrer was one of only eight to be named a national recipient of the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame Scholar Athlete Award in 1991, his senior year.

Furrer attended Pullman High School, on the Palouse in southeastern Washington, and graduated in 1986. A baseball player, he did not play organized football until his sophomore year, and was the quarterback on the junior varsity. The next year he was a backup to senior Timm Rosenbach, another future NFL quarterback, and became the starter for the Greyhounds as a senior in the fall of 1985.

William Mason Furrer (born February 5, 1968) is a former American football quarterback in the National Football League for the Chicago Bears, Phoenix Cardinals, Denver Broncos, Houston Oilers, St. Louis Rams, and Jacksonville Jaguars.
