Dan Orlovsky has built an impressive career as an ESPN analyst and part of the network’s NFL crew.
However, before Orlovsky became a mainstay with the mega sports company, he was seeking a consistent opportunity to be a quarterback in the NFL. Although he traded in his shoulder pads for a seat in the broadcast booth, Orlovsky delivered one of the most infamous plays in his first NFL start with the Lions.
In a 2008 game against the Vikings, the former Detroit signal caller took the snap and ran out of the back of the end zone while scrambling to his right seeking to connect with one of his receivers down the field. Thursday marked the 15th anniversary of the infamous play and the crew on Get Up! re-hashed the moment with Orlovsky during the throwback Thursday segment of the show.
