Ken O'Brien Biography

Ken O'Brien is one of the most popular and richest Football Player who was born on November 27, 1960 in Rockville Centre, New York, United States.

O’Brien started his collegiate football career in 1978 at Sacramento State as a reserve. He played at the University of California, Davis under coach Jim Sochor. In his senior year, 1982, he was a NCAA Division II All-American. He led UCD to a 10-0 regular season mark and to the Division II championship game. He was ranked #2 in total offense and #3 in passing efficiency in Division II. He also won the Babe Slater Award for being the most outstanding male athlete at UC Davis.

The New York Jets selected O’Brien as the 24th pick in the first round of the 1983 NFL Draft, amazing observers who expected the team to choose fellow quarterback Dan Marino, a future member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame who was selected three picks later. The many Jets fans who attended the draft, held in New York City, were surprised and outraged by the choice; O’Brien was so obscure that New York television reporter Sal Marchiano twice mangled his name while reporting on fan reaction to the draft. (O’Brien said after his retirement, “Who blames [the fans], right? Who, in New York, has heard of Cal, University of California, Davis? Nobody … I’m not sure I would have reacted any differently. Heck, some of my cousins grew up as Jets fans. They were probably doing the same thing.”)
