Celebrated Kentucky quarterback Jared Lorenzen, starting quarterback for the Kentucky Wildcats back in the early 2000’s, who went on to earn a coveted Super Bowl ring in SB XLII with the New York Giants, has passed away at the young age of 38.  :\'(

Lorenzen stood out as a “plus sized” quarterback but given his winning record, he knew how to get the job done. He was fondly nicknamed the “Pillsbury Throwboy” due to his prodigious weight.  8)

After his NFL run was over, he went on to other ventures but at one point his weight spiralled up to north of 500 pounds. :o. In the past year he managed to lose 100 pounds of the heft.
