Biography

Steve Beuerlein's journey through the National Football League (NFL) is a tale of perseverance and adaptability. Born on March 7, 1965, in Hollywood, California, Beuerlein attended Notre Dame, where he played college football for the Fighting Irish. His performance at Notre Dame caught the attention of NFL scouts, leading to his selection in the fourth round of the 1987 NFL Draft by the Los Angeles Raiders.
