Sonny Jurgensen had a career before he was traded to Washington in 1964. He won an NFL championship in 1960 with the Philadelphia Eagles as the backup quarterback to Norm Van Brocklin. He played there for seven seasons and led the league in touchdown passes with 32 in 1961.
Then he came to Washington and became an NFL star — his best years, from 1964 to 1970, with weapons like Hall of Famers Bobby Mitchell and Charley Taylor and should-be-Hall-of-Famer Jerry Smith, throwing 160 touchdowns and more than 22,000 yards — but just one winning season, under the legendary Vince Lombardi in 1969.
