Number five is the veteran backup, Josh McCown.

It’s hard not to be jealous of this guy, am I right guys? Come on, he is 39 years old with a full head of hair.

How many of us reading this post can make the same boast? Some of you maybe, but odds are not all of you.

Lucky guy.

McCown also has excellent helmet hair. When his helmet comes off he still looks good under there. That’s a feat not always achieved.

He doesn’t make the leap higher up the list. The style is a concern. The long hair on top with the shave on the side and the longer hair on top.

The shaved side look is a bit too tough. If it weren’t shaved it could blend with the top better. It’s like the old saying , “Business in the front, party in the back”.

For him it’s business up top and party underneath. That’s not great. Combine that with the fact that he uses too much product and you have the fifth best quarterback hair in team history.
