William Scott Musgrave (born November 11, 1967) is an American football coach and former quarterback who is the offensive coordinator for the Oakland Raiders of the National Football League (NFL).
Playing career
A standout athlete at Grand Junction High School, Musgrave was named the Colorado High School Athlete of the Year in 1985.[1] Musgrave started at QB four years for the University of Oregon, and was captain for three. Musgrave led the Ducks to back-to-back bowl appearances for the first time in school history. In 1990, as a Senior, Musgrave was named team MVP, 1990 first-team all-conference quarterback, GTE Academic All-American of the Year, and earned a Scholar-Athlete Award by the National Football Foundation and Hall of Fame. Musgrave was inducted into the school's Hall of Fame in 2000. Musgrave was the team's career leader for passing yardage (8343) until that mark was eclipsed by Marcus Mariota in 2014.[2]
- 1987: 139/234 for 1,836 yards with 13 TD vs 8 INT.
- 1988: 62/121 for 815 yards with 8 TD vs 4 INT.
- 1989: 231/401 for 3,081 yards with 22 TD vs 16 INT.
- 1990: 173/301 for 2,219 yards with 14 TD vs 12 INT.
Drafted in the fourth round by the Dallas Cowboys, Musgrave was released in camp, but played with the San Francisco 49ers in 1991 and 1993 under head coach George Seifert and offensive coordinator Mike Shanahan. Musgrave went with Shanahan to Denver, where he played in 1995-96, and was released in preseason 1997. Following a coaching stint in 1997, Musgrave signed with the Indianapolis Colts in 1998 before he was released in training camp.
Coaching career
1997−1998
Immediately after being released as a player, Musgrave joined the Oakland Raiders as a quarterbacks coach in 1997 under head coach Joe Bugel. When the Raiders fired Bugel following the season, Musgrave attempted another try as a player with the Colts in 1998, but was released during training camp. He was immediately hired by the Philadelphia Eagles as an offensive assistant under Ray Rhodes, a former 49ers assistant coach. Musgrave was promoted to offensive coordinator and called plays in place of Dana Bible for the final 10 games of the season. However, Musgrave was not retained by new head coach Andy Reid when Rhodes was fired at the end of the season.
Carolina Panthers
Musgrave was hired as the quarterbacks coach under George Seifert with the Carolina Panthers in 1999, in an arrangement that saw he and Seifert having a heavy hand in calling the plays over offensive coordinator Gil Haskell. Upon Haskell's departure to Seattle, Musgrave was promoted to offensive coordinator in 2000. The team chose him to replace Haskell, who was a holdover from a previous staff, due to his favorable relationship with Seifert as well as his experience calling plays the previous season. However, as an inexperienced coordinator, Musgrave had faltered at times, been criticized in the media for choices in playcalling, and was at one point rumored to have been yelled at by Seifert in front of the team. Musgrave resigned from the position after three games.[3]
University of Virginia
Musgrave was hired as offensive coordinator, quarterbacks coach, and tight ends coach under Al Groh at the University of Virginia in 2001, tutoring quarterback Matt Schaub to school records in his two years as coach.
Jacksonville Jaguars
Musgrave was hired as the offensive coordinator for the Jacksonville Jaguars under new head coach Jack Del Rio in 2003. In 2004, he picked up additional duties as quarterbacks coach before he was fired at the conclusion of the season.
2005−2010
Musgrave was hired as the quarterbacks coach for the Washington Redskins in 2005 under head coach Joe Gibbs. Musgrave was the quarterbacks coach for the Atlanta Falcons from 2006–2009. In 2010, Musgrave was promoted to assistant head coach/quarterbacks coach.
Minnesota Vikings
Musgrave was hired by the Minnesota Vikings to the position of offensive coordinator under head coach Leslie Frazier on January 16, 2011.[4] Under his tenure, Adrian Peterson had his 2,000 rushing yards season and was named AP Offensive Player of the Year. After three seasons with the Vikings, he was not retained by new head coach Mike Zimmer after the 2013 season.
Philadelphia Eagles
Musgrave was hired by the Philadelphia Eagles as the team's quarterbacks coach on January 27, 2014.[5]
Return to the Oakland Raiders
Musgrave was hired by the Raiders on January 19, 2015, to serve as the offensive coordinator under new head coach Jack Del Rio.[6]
