Glover Freeman Quin Jr. (born January 15, 1986)[1] is an American former professional football player who was a safety in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the New Mexico Lobos, and was selected by the Houston Texans in the fourth round of the 2009 NFL Draft. Quinn stayed in Houston for four seasons. He then also played for the Detroit Lions for six seasons.

High school career

A four-year letterman in football and basketball, Quin graduated from North Pike High School in 2004.[2] During his senior year, Quin received the MVP award from both his basketball and football team at North Pike. By the end of his high school career, Quin had rushed for 2,552 yards, made 224 tackles and 13 interceptions. Quin was awarded the U.S. Army Scholar Athlete Award.[3]

College career

Quin transferred into the University of New Mexico after spending a year at Southwest Mississippi Community College.[4][5] Quin was a three-year starter at the cornerback position for the University of New Mexico.

In 2006, during his sophomore season, Quin received an Honorable Mention on the All Mountain West Conference (MWC), team as a sophomore. During the season, Quin started 13 games for the Lobos. Quin led the MWC with 12 pass break-ups and was second in the league, behind his teammate DeAndre Wright in passes defended with 12. Glover Quin was 3rd on the Lobos and 29th in the MWC with 63 tackles on the year.

In 2007, during his junior season, Quin again received Honorable Mention on the All Mountain West Conference Team. Early in the season, Quin suffered a painful groin injury that required surgery. Upon his return, the Lobos' defense improved its allowed passing yardage from 255.6 yards in its first five games down to 161 yards in its final eight games. Quin tied for third in the MWC with 10 passes defended.

In 2008, during his senior season, Quin was selected as a first-team All Mountain West Conference player. Quin had a remarkable season that ended with him missing only five tackles throughout the season. He was voted team MVP by his teammates; an honor that had not gone to a defensive player for the school since Brian Urlacher was given the honor in 1999. Quin became the first cornerback in Lobos' history to win the award.[3]

Professional career

Quin attended the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, Indiana, and completed all of the combine drills. He performed well and also ran positional drills for scouts. On March 12, 2009, he participated at New Mexico's pro day, but opted to stand on his combine numbers and only performed positional drills.[6] At the conclusion of the pre-draft process, Quin was projected to be a fifth round pick by NFL draft experts and scouts. He was ranked the seventh best free safety prospect in the draft by DraftScout.com and was ranked the 25th best cornerback prospect in the draft by WalterFootball.com.[7][8]

Houston Texans

The Houston Texans selected Quin in the fourth round (112th overall) in the 2009 NFL Draft. He was the eighth safety drafted in 2008.[11]

2009

On July 17, 2009, the Houston Texans signed Quin to a four-year, $2.24 million contract that includes a signing bonus of $490,250.[12][13]

Throughout training camp, Quin competed for a job as a backup cornerback against Antwaun Molden, Fred Bennett, David Pittman, Brice McCain, and Matterral Richardson.[14] He was impressive throughout camp and was able to progress quickly after Jacques Reeves sustained a broken leg and Dunta Robinson chose to holdout for a new contract.[15] NFL analyst Gil Brandt stated Quin would be one of the biggest surprises in the league as a rookie.[16] Head coach Gary Kubiak named Quin the third cornerback and starting nickelback on the depth chart to start the regular season, behind Dunta Robinson and Fred Bennett.[17]

He made his professional regular season debut in the Houston Texans' season-opener against the New York Jets and made five combined tackles in their 24–7 loss.[18] Quin made his first career tackle on running back Leon Washington during his eight-yard reception on the Jets' first drive.[19] On October 4, 2009, Quin earned his first career start after surpassing Fred Bennett on the depth chart and taking over the starting role. He collected five combined tackles during a 29–6 win against the Oakland Raiders in Week 4.[20] In Week 9, Quin collected a season-high four pass deflections and six solo tackles in the Texans' 20–17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts.[21] He was inactive for the Texans' Week 13 loss at the Jacksonville Jaguars after sustaining a concussion the previous week.[22] He returned in Week 14 and recorded a season-high eight combined tackles during a 34–7 victory against the Seattle Seahawks.[21] Quin finished his rookie season in 2009 with 68 combined tackles (56 solo) and 11 pass deflections in 15 games and 12 starts.[23]

Quin entered training camp slated as the No. 1 starting cornerback after Dunta Robinson departed in free agency. Quin saw minor competition from Jacques Reeves, Antwaun Molden, Brice McCain, and Fred Bennett.[24] Defensive coordinator Frank Bush named Quin and rookie Kareem Jackson the starting cornerbacks to begin the regular season.[25]

He started in the Houston Texans' season-opener against the Indianapolis Colts and made four combined tackles, a pass deflection, and a fumble recovery in their 34–24 victory.[26] In Week 10, Quin collected a season-high 13 solo tackles and deflected a pass during a 31–24 loss at the Jacksonville Jaguars; he also batted down the game-winning pass into the hands of Jaguars receiver Mike Thomas.[27][28][29][30] On November 28, 2010, Quin recorded a career-high five pass deflections, made four combined tackles, and intercepted three passes by quarterback Rusty Smith in the Texans' 20–0 win against Tennessee Titans in Week 14. He made his first career interception off a pass intended for Nate Washington in the second quarter.[31] His first career multi-interception game earned him the AFC Defensive Player of the Week.[32] He finished his second season with a career-high 85 combined tackles (71 solo), 14 pass deflections, and three interceptions in 16 games and 16 starts.[33]

2011

On February 22, 2011, it was reported that Texans' defensive coordinator Wade Phillips was planning to move Quin to safety after discussing it with Quin before the beginning of the NFL lockout.[34] During the draft, multiple analysts stated Quin was better suited to play safety. The move was due to the Texans lack of depth at safety after the departure of Bernard Pollard and was also due to Quin's ability to cover the slot.[35] On July 29, 2011, the Houston Texans signed veteran cornerback Johnathan Joseph to assume Quin's starting job at cornerback. After the signing of Joseph, defensive coordinator Wade Phillips stated Quin would now be moving to safety.[36] Head coach Gary Kubiak officially named Quin the starting strong safety to start the regular season, along with free safety Danieal Manning.[37]

On September 25, 2011, Quin recorded a season-high eight combined tackles during a 40–33 loss at the New Orleans Saints in Week 3.[38] He finished the season with 77 combined tackles (59 solo) and nine pass deflections in 16 games and 16 starts.[39]

The Houston Texans finished the 2011 season first in the AFC South with a 10–6 record.[40] On January 7, 2012, Quin started in his first career playoff game and recorded five combined tackles in the Texans' 31–10 win against the Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC Wild Card Round.[41] The following week, he collected three combined tackles as the Texans were eliminated from the playoffs after a 20–13 loss at the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Divisional Round.[42]

2012

Quin became an unrestricted free agent after the 2012 season and was intent on staying with the Houston Texans. Many analysts cited Quin as the Texans' top free agent priority. The Texans general manager Rick Smith decided against the franchise tag and Quin's agent claimed Quin never received an offer from the Texans.[51][52] On March 12, 2013, it was reported that Quin was visiting the Detroit Lions immediately after the free agency period began.[53]

Detroit Lions

On March 13, 2013, the Detroit Lions signed Quin to a five-year, $23.50 million contract that includes $6.25 million guaranteed and a signing bonus of $5.25 million.[12][54]
