Jake Delhomme Biography

Jake Delhomme is one of the most popular and richest Football Player who was born on January 10, 1975 in Breaux Bridge, Breaux Bridge, United States. Former NFL quarterback best known for his time with the Carolina Panthers. He helped lead the Panthers to the Super Bowl in 2003 where they were defeated by the New England Patriots.

He and wide receiver Steve Smith provided the bulk of the offensive production for the Panthers during their 2003 playoff run.

Delhomme played college football for the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, then named the University of Southwestern Louisiana, his mother’s alma mater. The only true freshman quarterback to start for a Division I school in 1993, his passer efficiency rating ranked second among NCAA freshmen quarterbacks. Playing on a team with future NFL wide receiver Brandon Stokley and offensive lineman Anthony Clement, the Ragin’ Cajuns won the Big West Conference twice, and finished with three winning seasons. During his senior year, he led the Ragin’ Cajuns to an improbable win over highly favored Texas A&M 29–22.

Delhomme went undrafted in the 1997 NFL Draft, but was later signed by the New Orleans Saints as an undrafted free agent. After spending the first season on the practice squad, he was assigned to the Amsterdam Admirals of NFL Europe as a backup quarterback to future NFL and Super Bowl MVP, Kurt Warner; Delhomme later said that “Being around someone as mature as Kurt was, that really inspired me”. After another stint on the Saints’ practice squad, he was sent back to NFL Europe, this time as a member of the Frankfurt Galaxy. The Galaxy operated under a rare two-quarterback strategy, utilizing both Delhomme and Pat Barnes; the pair was known as the “Double-Headed Quarterback Monster”. The unorthodox strategy worked, as the Galaxy won World Bowl ’99 over the Barcelona Dragons. Delhomme would later say about his time in Europe:

He has two daughters, Lauren Elizabeth and Lindsey Marie with his childhood sweetheart, Keri Melancon.

The 2004 season proved bittersweet for Delhomme, as he posted career highs in pass attempts, completions, overall yardage, and touchdowns. Unfortunately, the team was stricken with injuries, fielding five different combinations in their offensive line alone. Starting the season 1–7 after the early losses of running backs Stephen Davis and DeShaun Foster, as well as Steve Smith, their leading wide receiver, the Panthers rallied for a fantastic second half of the season. Delhomme finished the final eight games of the season with a passer rating of 102.8, fourth best in the league during that period. He also threw 17 touchdowns and just 4 interceptions en route to winning six of their last eight games. They ultimately positioned themselves for a playoff berth, but lost that chance with a final game loss to Delhomme’s former team, the New Orleans Saints.

Delhomme started the 2006 season as the Panthers’ quarterback, the first time in franchise history that the same quarterback was the starter for three straight seasons. He set records during the season by making 150 consecutive pass attempts without an interception, bettering Steve Beuerlein’s previous team record. The following week against the Washington Redskins, he continued his assault on the team record books by breaking Beuerlein’s records for completions and passing yards. Unfortunately, he injured his thumb in a game against the Philadelphia Eagles, and missed three games. During his time off, Chris Weinke started for the first time since the 2002 season, and in his first game shattered the team record for passing yards in a single game with 423 yards, but his three interceptions were costly as the Panthers lost the game to the New York Giants. Weinke could only manage a single victory in Delhomme’s absence (against the rival Atlanta Falcons, only his second victory as an NFL starter), and Delhomme returned for the season finale against the New Orleans Saints.
