First JMU quarterback in the NFL ... and a wild Mike McCarthy meeting
James Madison has never been considered a breeding ground for NFL talent.
Even so, there are recognizable alumni from the school who have made it to — and even thrived in — the league.
One of the most famous was former Washington wide receiver Gary Clark, a four-time Pro Bowler and two-time Super Bowl champ who still ranks in the top 50 all time in receptions and yards in league history.
The other most famous JMU alum in league history is one Cowboys fans know well — Charles Haley. In one of the more decorated NFL careers, Haley was named to the Pro Football Hall of Fame after leading the Cowboys to three Super Bowl victories and the San Francisco 49ers to two more.
In recent years, a handful of JMU players have made it to the NFL — former Eagles linebacker Akeem Jordan, former Bills linebacker Arthur Moats and former Cardinals offensive guard Earl Watford.
The school’s most infamous alum? It’s probably former Buffalo Bills kicker, Scott Norwood, who missed the would-be winning kick against the Giants in Super Bowl XXV.
JMU had never produced an NFL quarterback until DiNucci made his debut last week. (Mike Cawley was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in 1996 but never played in a regular-season game.)
