Douglas Richard Flutie (born October 23, 1962) is an American former football quarterback who played professionally for 21 seasons. Flutie played 12 seasons in the National Football League (NFL), eight seasons in the Canadian Football League (CFL), and one season in the United States Football League (USFL). He played college football for the Boston College Eagles, winning the Heisman Trophy in 1984 amid a season that saw him throw a game-winning touchdown pass in the final seconds of a ranked matchup against the Miami Hurricanes. Flutie chose to begin his professional career with the USFL's New Jersey Generals; his unavailability to NFL teams resulted in him being selected 285th overall by the Los Angeles Rams in the 11th round of the 1985 NFL draft, the lowest drafting of a Heisman winner. After the USFL folded, Flutie spent his first four NFL seasons with the Chicago Bears and New England Patriots.
