3 Years. You might be thinking of Sorgi.
Chris Painter drafted in the 6th round by Indianapolis in 2009. And he was Manning backup for 3 years.
That's just one example. Can anyone remember the backups for Rodgers? I know most of us can do it with Brady. Brees? How about Philip Rivers?
Once you get that contract, the backup position is a development pick every 3 to 4 years via the draft or a older vet on the cheap.
