Professional football quarterback Luke McCown plays in the National Football League for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
On February 9, 2009, McCown re-signed with the Buccaneers to a deal worth up to $7 million a year. As McCown has only made three career starts with the Buccaneers, some speculate that this high-dollar contract will provide McCown a chance to compete for the starting quarterback job in 2009.ESPN.com: Bucs Re-sign QB McCown
