Some Famous People called Tony Eason
Tony Eason
Charles Carroll "Tony" Eason IV (born October 8, 1959) is a former quarterback. He played college football for the University of Illinois (1980–1982) and professional football for the New England Patriots (1983–1989) and New York Jets (1989–1990). He was selected in the first round of the legendary 1983 NFL Draft, in which 5 other future NFL starting quarterbacks were also drafted. During his stint with the Patriots, he continuously battled Patriots veteran quarterback Steve Grogan for the starting job, splitting starting quarterback duties with him for seven seasons. He was the primary starter for the 1985 Patriots team that made their first Super Bowl appearance in Super Bowl XX, though he was benched in favor of Grogan during the second quarter after failing to complete a pass and being harried by the legendary Chicago Bears defense. He returned in 1986 to lead the team to their first division title since 1978 (and only their third ever), though they would lose in the first round of the playoffs that year. After being cut in 1989 by the Patriots for refusing to take a pay cut, he was signed by the New York Jets and played in two seasons, mostly as a backup, before retiring after the 1990 season.
