John Robert Navarre (born September 9, 1980) is an American football quarterback who most recently was in training camp for the Indianapolis Colts of the NFL, although the Colts subsequently waived Navarre on Tuesday, August 8, 2007. He is currently an NFL free agent. He was drafted in the seventh round of the 2004 NFL Draft by the Arizona Cardinals and served as their third-string quarterback for the 2004-2006 seasons. Navarre started one game for the Cardinals, throwing four interceptions and one touchdown in a losing effort against the Detroit Lions. Navarre played college football at the University of Michigan where he led the Wolverines to the 2003 Big Ten championship. Previously, he attended Cudahy High School in Wisconsin, where he had a record of 33-4 as the starting quarterback. Navarre has appeared in five games in his three-year NFL career; his debut was December 5, 2004.
Navarre held several Michigan career records including pass attempts, completions, passing yards, and touchdown passes before Chad Henne surpassed those marks in 2007. In 2003, Navarre set season records for passing yards (3,331), pass attempts (456), and completions (270). Against the Iowa Hawkeyes in 2003, he threw for a Michigan single-game record 389 yards. Later in the season, he led the Wolverines to their largest comeback, 21 points, in school history as they defeated the Minnesota Golden Gophers, 38-35.
