Former Oregon safety TJ Ward played in Super Bowl 50 in a win for the Broncos and was a two-time Pro Bowl selection. He played for four teams in his 10-year career in the NFL.

In his first four seasons in the league, Ward was able to prove his worth as a starter on defense. He worked his way through several coaching changes with the Browns.
