Daniel "Colt" McCoy (born September 5, 1986) is an American football quarterback for the Washington Redskins of the National Football League (NFL). He was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the third round of the 2010 NFL Draft, after playing college football for the University of Texas. He has also been a member of the San Francisco 49ers. McCoy was the starting quarterback for the Texas Longhorns from 2006–2009 and won the 2008 Walter Camp Award, was the 2008 Heisman Trophy runner-up and was a 2009 Heisman finalist.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2010 NFL Draft QB ranking )〕〔 McCoy is second to Boise State's Kellen Moore in games won by a NCAA Division I quarterback. In his senior year, he won 13 of the top 15 major college player awards including quarterback of the year, offensive player of the year and outstanding football player of the year. After sitting out the 2005 Longhorn season as a redshirt, McCoy was the starting quarterback for the 2006 Longhorn team.〔Dodd, Dennis (With Young leaving, Longhorns to unholster Colt ) CBS. Retrieved February 28, 2006.〕〔 〕 On November 4, 2006, McCoy threw his 27th touchdown pass in a win against Oklahoma State, to take sole possession of the Texas school record for most touchdowns ever thrown by a quarterback in a single season. Subsequently, in the 2006 Alamo Bowl on December 30, McCoy threw two touchdowns against Iowa Hawkeyes football to tie Nevada's David Neill for second place for freshman touchdowns in a single season.〔 - This record has since been broken by Oklahoma's Sam Bradford in the 2007 season.〕 Also during the 2006 season, McCoy was named ''College Football News'' Big 12 Player of the Year and was named the quarterback to their "All Freshman Team". Injuries caused him to miss portions of the final regular season games, but he was able to play for the entire duration of the Longhorns' bowl game. Leading the 2007 Longhorns, McCoy was somewhat less consistent. Through the first five games he threw nine interceptions—two more than he threw in the entire 2006 season.〔 He went on to throw 18 interceptions during the 2007 season. Leading the 2008 Texas Longhorn football team, McCoy and the Longhorns began the season with eight straight wins, including a win over then #1 Oklahoma, #6 Oklahoma State and #11 Missouri. His performance helped the Longhorns rise at one point to the #1 ranking in the national polls, although UT lost to Texas Tech University and finished ranked third in the BCS standings. In 2008 McCoy set school records for most career touchdown passes,〔 most touchdown passes in a season,〔 most total touchdowns by a Texas player,〔 most career wins,〔 and most career passing yards.〔 In addition to setting passing records, McCoy led the team with 561 yards rushing and eleven rushing touchdowns, establishing a reputation as a dual threat quarterback.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Texas Longhorn Football Statistics 2008 )〕 McCoy was named the 2008 AP Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year.〔 〕 ==Early life== McCoy was born in Hobbs, New Mexico. He is the eldest of three children born to Steven Brad McCoy and Debra Kay (Woodruff) McCoy. He attended Jim Ned High School in Tuscola, Texas, population 714,〔 where he was coached in football by his father, Brad McCoy. He achieved several distinctions as a high school player, including two-time Associated Press 2A Offensive MVP and First-team All-state selection.〔 Over his career, he completed 536-of-849 passes (63.1%) for 9,344 yards and 116 TDs.〔 He ranks as the all-time leading passer in Texas Division 2A high school history and is fourth overall in Texas high school history.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Colt McCoy #12 )〕 McCoy also served as Jim Ned High School's punter as a junior and senior.〔 During his sophomore year, McCoy was also playing free safety. However, after he suffered a concussion while tackling 215-pound Bangs High School running back Jacoby Jones (not to be confused with the Baltimore Ravens wide receiver of the same name), his father decided not to let him play defense anymore. At the time Jim Ned was 8–0, but as McCoy missed the next two games due to the concussion, Jim Ned's season unraveled.〔 〕 McCoy also played in the 2003 Texas 2A State Championship against the San Augustine Wolves. Jim Ned lost 28–7. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Colt McCoy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
