About Doug Flutie's Real Height
Most quarterbacks in the NFL today hover somewhere around 6 feet 2 inches to 6'6". It's rare to find quarterbacks taller than 6'6” and even rarer to find someone below 5’10”.
Doug Flutie wasn’t one of the shortest quarterbacks ever but he was among the shortest. Many experts believe height is an advantage for quarterbacks but there are some who say that ultimately height doesn't matter much.
Anyway, Doug used to say that he is 5 feet 10 inches tall, but later on ESPN, he said that he has been measured as 5 feet 9 inches. Which just seems more accurate.
