Beavers in the NFL, A Quarterly Review: Offense

The first quarter of the NFL season has passed, which marks a great time to check in on how Beaver alum have fared thus far.

First up, offensive players:

________________________________________________

Derek Anderson (QB) Carolina Panthers:

Last played for Oregon State in 2004.

While typically a backup for one of the top QBs in the game, Cam Newton, Anderson was forced into service in the 4th quarter when a concussion took Newton out of the Panthers' Week 4 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Anderson started off hot, throwing for 2 TDs in what looked to be a comeback for the ages but the hope was short lived as he followed it up with 2 INTs, one returned for an Atlanta touchdown to all but seal the win for the Falcons.
