Best NFL QB born in West Virginia? Surprised me.

[Cuyahoga Falls Eers]

The best NFL quarterback born in West Virginia, 247 Sports says, is Charley Seabright.

Charley was born in Wheeling and was all-state in football, basketball and baseball at Benwood Union and played for WVU in 1938-1941. He started with the Rams, went into the service during World War II, and was with the Steelers from 1946-1950.

He was inducted into the WVU Hall of Fame in 2004. He was on the WVU 1940s all-time team.

Tennessee’s best is Chad Pennington, who played for Marshall.

Seabright was chosen over Princeton native Jim Walthall, who played for the Eagles; and Weston native Fred Wyant, who played for the Redskins.

Wow, no idea. Thx for sharing. I grew up with Fred's daughter. He was always a gentleman......and expected any one sniffing around said daughter to be the same. Nuff said.
