Dan Orlovsky is currently an analyst for ESPN. The 39-year-old has built quite a reputation for himself studying the NFL. He started his career in 2005, after being drafted by the Detroit Lions. Playing at the QB position, Orlovsky spent 12 seasons in the league, however, he spent most of his time on the bench. Therefore, the QB never became a wildly popular figure among the fans. But that can change, especially after he has got the approval of them in an important department.
Recently the 39-year-old revealed the choice of his favorite sports movie of all time. For him, the Denzel Washington and Ryan Gosling starrer, ‘Remember the Titans’ is an all-time great. Not only for him, but even for the fans who came across the tweet, the movie scored a lot of points.
