AJ Feeley was a 5th round pick of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2001.
He played QB from 1997-00 at Oregon.
Most of his statistical playing time was in 1999 when he threw for 1951 yards, and 14 TDs to 6 INT.
Feeley had a touch of magic during his time in Philly, leading the team to a comeback win in his rookie season, and helping the team win three games to secure the #1 seed his second year.
In 2004, AJ was traded to the Dolphins for a second round pick.
He’d battle incumbent Jay Fiedler all season long, but with bellcow RB Ricky Williams MIA, HC Dave Wannstedt, was fired midway through a disastrous season.
During that year he’d throw for a career high 1893 yards and 11 TDs.
Feeley was traded after the season to the San Diego Chargers, but buried on the depth chart, didn’t see any playing time.
AJ returned to Philadelphia in 2006, playing with the franchise as they transitioned from Donovan McNabb to Mike Vick.
Afterwards he entered into the journeyman phase of his career, with one year stops at Carolina (2009) and St. Louis (2010).
NOTES:
AJ had some wonderful cards and with him signing, I thought I’d get him on his marvelous Leaf card and a Atomic as a bonus. After I received the Atomic card in I realized I was really annoyed by the way the shadow from his helmet hits his face.
Played QB at UCLA from 1997-99, converting to WR in his Senior campaign of 2000.
Statistically didn’t have much to show, catching 8 passes for 167 yards, while throwing for 788 yards and 7 TDs on 57 of 104 throws, over college career.
Signed as a free agent by the Tennessee Titans in 2001 and impressed enough to make squad, catching 24 passes for 329 yards and a TD in rookie season.
Started first 16 game slate in 2004, catching 80 passes for 1247 yards and 11 TDs.
Spent an additional two seasons in Tennessee posting sub 700 yard seasons.
Joined the St. Louis Rams in 2007, logging 34 catches for 379 yards and 3 TDs over the season and the following year.
Signed with the Ravens in 2009, but did not make the squad- retiring due to a lingering knee injury.
Since retirement has dabbled in broadcasting and commentary, moonlighting as an NFL analyst.
NOTES:
I really liked Leaf’s trading card design at this time- especially how the color hits these parallels. It absorbs the ink well and looks good on most colors- well- besides black.
