Quarterback
No.19
East Carolina
"A No. 4 draft choice of the Giants in 1974, Carl got in valuable time during the preseason games where he displayed good poise and a strong arm. He appeared in seven regular season games, mostly on special teams, but had one long workout at quarterback against the Redskins and was 6-for-12 for 59 yards in a second half appearance; he also rushed for eight yards in that game. Summerell will battle it out with Jim Del Gaizo for the backup quarterback spot behind Craig Morton.
Summerell led East Carolina to two straight Southern Conference titles and set a college total offense mark with 1,700 yards in his junior year, 425 rushing and 1,275 passing. He had 82 completions for 1,222 yards and 11 touchdowns in his senior season and rushed 80 times for 351 yards and seven more touchdowns.
Carl was born in Norfolk, Virginia, and as a youngster was a top Little League player. He starred in football and baseball at Kellam High School in Virginia Beach. He's an avid golfer."
