Longevity and finding his way bouncing around the league contributed to the legacy that Ron Jaworski left behind as one of the better quarterbacks the NFL has seen to date. While Jaworski may not have ever achieved the top accomplishment a pro-football player could achieve by earning the Lombardi Trophy, he did have a lengthy playing career which later led to broadcasting and the ownership of an arena football team. Growing up a three-sport athlete, Jaworski declined a contract offer from the St. Louis Cardinals in order to play collegiate football at Youngstown State University where he was selected to play in the Senior Bowl his final season with the Penguins.
In the 1973 NFL Draft, Jaworski was selected 37th overall in the second round by the Los Angeles Rams where he would end up playing third-string quarterback behind John Hadl and James Harris. In 1975, both quarterbacks suffered injuries that led to Jaworski becoming the starting quarterback and helped the Rams win a playoff game before he made his way to the Philadelphia Eagles in 1977 where his most prominent playing years were spent. 1980, was Jaworski's best year as a quarterback, leading the Eagles to an 11-1 record, earning Pro Bowl honors, the NFC Player of the Year Award, Bell Bert Award, and a trip to Super Bowl XV. Unfortunately, the Eagles lost to the Oakland Raiders, 27-10 and years later Jaworski lost his starting job at quarterback. Throughout his seventeen-season NFL career, Jaworski also played for the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs until his retirement in 1990.
