Jim Zorn knows how cool it is to be the first starting quarterback of a franchise.
He is proud that he was the Seattle Seahawks’ first starting quarterback in their 1976 expansion season. No one can ever take that away.
On Saturday, Brandon Silvers will be the first starting quarterback for the XFL Seattle Dragons when they play their first-ever game at the DC Defenders at 11 a.m. (PT), with Zorn as his coach.
“You don’t think about it as a player, because he has played in games before, but it really is something to savor and to remember,” Zorn said of being the first starting quarterback for a franchise.
