- Rookie Roundup 14 - Quinton Patton [RC]
Patton hasn't had much luck in his NFL career. He suffered a foot fracture that sidelined him after the fourth game of his rookie 2013 season.
He was injured again in 2016 when he was finally given a chance to be a starter. Finally, he was traded to the New York Jets in 2017, and released that year with an injury settlement.
