Early Years

Born in Southern California, Losman was a high school stadout at Venice High. He enrolled in neighboring UCLA, however, transferred to Tulane University where he lead the team to the Hawaii Bowl in 2002. He was then drafted to the Bills in his senior year in 2004.

In the NFL

In the same year that saw Eli Manning and Ben Roethlisberger get drafted to pro teams, Losman was picked as Buffalo's first rounder. Losman saw his first start in 2005 as a professional. Since then he has not fully lived up to his potential, with a 77.3 passer rating, 31 touchdowns, and 29 interceptions. It's yet to be determined whether he will start for the Bills in the 2008 campaign.
