The 58-year-old played seven years in the NFL as a quarterback for the Chiefs, Raiders and 49ers. His coaching career started back in 1997 as the 49ers’ offensive quality control coach.

Knapp joined the Falcons as their quarterbacks coach in 2018 before the Jets hired him as their passing game specialist this past January.
