Danny Kanell's Career

Kannel began playing football in high school as a junior where he led Westminster Academy to a 12-1 record and state championship. He joined Major League Baseball team New York Yankees in 1993, after the 14th round of MLB draft. However, he saw football as a better career path for him.

To Kannel's credit, his back to back commendable performances won him a starting role as a sophomore. During his college years, he played 35 games and finished 62.7% of his 854 pass endeavors.

Danny pitched for 8,372 yards, 47 scores, which was a school record at the time. Moreover, he made 26 interceptions over his four years as a Seminole. Kanell got registered into the Florida State Athletic Hall of Fame in September 2012.

Kannel was named to the Honorable Mention rundown of All-Americans during his last senior season at Florida State. In the 4th round of the 1996 NFL Draft, he was then taken by the New York Giants.

Kannel debuted in NFC and showed great performances for the Giants. Despite impressive performances, he was only making $216,000, which was the minimum salary of the league.

The following season he signed a three-year contract with the Giants worth $9.5 million. However, his performance declined gradually over the years. Giants then replaced him with Kerry Collins.

In 2000, Danny was released by the Atlanta Falcons before joining the AFL New York Dragons team in 2004. This was followed by a short stint with the NFL's Denver Broncos.

The same year, Danny Kanell announced his retirement. He has since served as a football analyst for ESPN shows.
