I’ll get right to it: J.T. O’Sullivan. You remember him, right? OK, probably not. O’Sullivan was a journeyman quarterback who found his way to the San Francisco 49ers in 2008 due to the latter hiring Mike Martz as an offensive coordinator. He was later named the starter, and his first game gave him 300 passing yards. That was pretty much it for anything good to say because he was eventually benched after that.
This, of course, involves coaching transitions from Mike Nolan to Mike Singletary among other things, but we won’t get to that.
