Damon Paul Huard (born July 9, 1973 in Yakima,
Washington) is an American football quarterback for
the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football
League. Huard spent four seasons with the Miami
Dolphins from 1997-2000, three seasons with the New
England Patriots from 2001-2003, and then was signed
by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2004 where he replaced
an injured Trent Green for games 2-9 in the 2006 NFL
season. Huard attended the University of Washington
and is the older brother of NFL player Brock Huard.
In 1998 Huard led the NFL Europe's Frankfurt Galaxy
to the World Bowl, but did not play due to injury.
Former Dolphins coach Dave Wannstedt chose Jay
Fiedler as the starter in 2000 despite Dan Marino's
persistent lobbying for Huard to serve as his
successor.
