The Ageless Wonder

Stafford, 37, is the second-oldest quarterback in the NFL, only to Aaron Rodgers. Despite his age, Stafford is playing the best ball of his career as he finally enjoys continual team success.

“I don't think I ever thought that far ahead [laughter]," stated Stafford. "No, I surely probably didn't think I was going to be playing NFL football still at 37. When I was a kid there weren't too many guys that were still doing that. It happens a little bit more now. I think with the way that guys take care of themselves, the way the rules are set up and all that is a little bit more conducive to playing for a little bit longer. I'm sure happy to be doing what I'm doing.”
