Bryant’s former gunslinger who could move the offense
In the 2011 season, Mike Croce brought proven production to Bryant, finishing with 1,850 passing yards, 20 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions, after opening the year with a broken foot in his recent résumé and still showing enough toughness to start the final nine games. He was a vertical-passing, high-volume quarterback who had already ranked among Bryant’s career leaders in passing yards and touchdowns, which signals real game-changing ability. The fit question is simple: if your team wants a poised, experienced QB who can push the ball and handle pressure, Croce checks a lot of boxes.
