Brock Osweiler

Brock Alan Osweiler was born on November 22, 1990, in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, and raised in Kalispell, Montana. He attended Flathead High School, where he excelled in both football and basketball. Initially committing to Gonzaga University for basketball, Osweiler later decided to focus on football. As a senior in high school, he was named the 2008–09 Gatorade Player of the Year in football for Montana, completing 189 of 303 passes for 2,703 yards and 29 touchdowns, alongside 162 rushes for 700 yards and 13 touchdowns. He then attended Arizona State University, where he became the starting quarterback in his junior year (2011), finishing the season with 4,036 passing yards, 26 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions.

Osweiler’s professional football career began when he was selected by the Denver Broncos in the second round of the 2012 NFL Draft. He played for the Broncos from 2012 to 2015, notably contributing to their Super Bowl 50 championship season in 2015. During this season, he stepped in as a starter for an injured Peyton Manning, leading the team to a 5-2 record and helping secure the top seed in the AFC. Following his time with the Broncos, Osweiler signed with the Houston Texans in 2016, where he started 14 games. He later had brief stints with the Cleveland Browns and returned to the Denver Broncos in 2017, and finished his playing career with the Miami Dolphins in 2018.

After retiring from the NFL on October 16, 2019, Osweiler transitioned into broadcasting, joining ESPN as a college football analyst in 2022. In 2024, he expanded his post-NFL career by becoming a national brand ambassador for SHARx, a patient advocacy company. This role reflects his personal commitment to addressing healthcare accessibility, stemming from his firsthand experience with loved ones affected by high drug prices. His involvement with SHARx underscores a dedication to community service and leveraging his public platform for meaningful causes.
