Jet of the Day: QB Vinny Testaverde

He may have spent 10 years in the NFL before joining the Jets, but Vinny Testaverde still left his mark on Gang Green history. The seven years he spent in New York were the most he played for one team in a pro career that spanned an incredible 21 seasons.

Testaverde landed with the Jets at the age of 35, having spent the previous decade with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens. But while many could easily have expected Testaverde to be a washed-up veteran, he responded with the best season of his career in 1998.
