Jason Calvin Garrett (born March 28, 1966 in Abington, Pennsylvania), is a former American football quarterback.
High School Years
Garrett attended University School in Hunting Valley, Ohio and was a letterman in football, basketball, and baseball. In football, as a senior, he won All-League honors as both, a quarterback and as a safety. Jason Garrett graduated from University High School in 1984.
Career
After playing for Princeton University, Garrett was the starting quarterback for the San Antonio Riders of the World League of American Football, but suffered a separated shoulder in the season opener. He rebounded the following year to lead San Antonio to a 7-3 record, but the North American West Division was very competitive, and the Riders did not make the playoffs. After two seasons as a cross-Atlantic venture, the Riders were shut down; the WLAF closed for two years, before a return as a six-team European-only setup (eventually re-branding itself as NFL Europe League). Garrett then went to the Dallas Cowboys, where he was a backup to Troy Aikman, and won two Super Bowl rings with the club. In 2000, he went to the New York Giants, where he appeared sparingly. After a short stint with the Miami Dolphins, he went to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he was used primarily as a coach, although he was fourth on the depth chart and would have been used in an emergency situation. Jason's brothers John and Judd also played in the WLAF, and Judd made second-team All-World League in 1991 after leading the league in catches. After retiring as a player, he is currently the quarterback coach for the Miami Dolphins.
