Ben DiNucci has had quite a football journey.
The 26-year-old quarterback started his college career at Pittsburgh before later transferring to James Madison. After college, he was picked by the Dallas Cowboys in the seventh round of the 2020 NFL draft.
DiNucci spent three years with the Cowboys, starting one game as an injury fill-in during the 2020 COVID season. He was waived following training camp in 2022 and spent last fall out of football.
DiNucci then played in the XFL with the Seattle Sea Dragons this spring and he led the league in passing yards (2,671) and ranked second in touchdown passes (20). After starring in the XFL, DiNucci signed with the Broncos in May.
DiNucci is now entering the 2023 season as Denver’s third-string quarterback behind Russell Wilson and Jarrett Stidham. After the team’s light ramp-up practice on Wednesday, DiNucci shared a perfect tweet about his football journey.
