'''Kurt Warner''' (1971 - ) is a quarterback for the [[Arizona Cardinals]]. He was signed by the [[Green Bay Packers]] as an undrafted free agent in 1994, but was cut before the season began and worked the night shift at a grocery store as well as being an assistant coach for his old college , the [[University of Northern Iowa]], during the day. Warner still dreamed of playing football and was able to join the [[Arena Football League]] in 1995 and played there for a few seasons before signing with the [[St. Louis Rams]] in 1998. He was the backup that season and the 1999 preseason, until the starter, Trent Green, got hurt. Warner came in and played phenomenally, winning the MVP, leading the team to a 23-16 [[Super Bowl]] win over the [[Tennessee Titans]], and winning game MVP honors. He won another league MVP in 2001 and led the team back to the Super Bowl, but they were upset 20-17 by the [[New England Patriots]]. After suffering a hand injury the following year, Warner was sidelined and eventually lost his starting spot. In 2004 he was released and he signed with the [[New York Giants]]. Warner got off to 5-4 start and lost the job again to rookie and number one draft pick [[Eli Manning]]. Warner played backup for the remainder of the year. In 2005, he signed with the [[Arizona Cardinals]], where he currently plays.
Warner and his wife who he married in 1997 are evangelical and [[charismatic movement|charismatic]] [[Christian]]s and have 5 children together, one of which whom is [[Autism|autistic]]. Warner adopted his wife's two children from a previous marriage at the time they were joined.
