Frank Reich
Frank Reich was a 14-year NFL veteran quarterback, playing for the Buffalo Bills, Carolina Panthers, New York Jets, and the Detroit Lions. He has the distinction of having led his team to the biggest comeback victory ever in both collegiate and professional ranks.
In November, 1984, Frank led the Maryland Terrapins on multiple scoring drives including three touchdowns in the third quarter and three in the fourth quarter, from a deficit of 31-0, to the biggest comeback in NCAA history in a 42-40 win over the University of Miami in the Orange Bowl.
In 1985 Frank was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the third round of the NFL Draft. The Bills had already drafted future Hall of Famer Jim Kelly and Frank was relegated to the backup role. Frank got his first start in 1989 when Kelly went down with a shoulder injury. Frank and starter Jim Kelly formed one of the longest-tenured backup-and-starter tandems, playing together for nine years (1986-1994).
In January, 1993, Frank led the Bills on a 35-3 run in the second half and overtime against the Houston Oilers en route to a 41-38 victory, the largest comeback in NFL history.
Throughout his NFL career, Frank remained a devout Christian. He is a motivational speaker who utilizes as a main keynote of his speeches the great comebacks he was a part of, and the importance of God in your life.
Frank is currently the quarterbacks coach for the Indianapolis Colts. He has three children with his wife, Linda.
