Since leaving Pittsburgh seven years ago, Nate Washington has been along for the ride on one of the NFL's most miserable quarterback carousels.
The list of starters: Vince Young, Kerry Collins, Rusty Smith, Matt Hasselbeck, Jake Locker, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Charlie Whitehurst, Zach Mettenberger, Brian Hoyer, Ryan Mallett, T.J. Yates and Brandon Weeden.
My God.
It should come as no surprise that Washington, who inked a one-year deal with the Pats last month, is excited to catch passes from Tom Brady. But, as the receiver indicated on a conference call Tuesday, the constant turnover at quarterback has actually been beneficial.
