Inspired return for Flutie
13 April 2012
Recalled 41-year-old quarterback Doug Flutie came to the rescue of San Diego Chargers in his first game for two years.
The Chargers had the NFL's equal worst record this season, persuading coach Marty Schottenheimer to recall Flutie, who passed for two touchdowns and ran in two scores in a 42-28 victory over the Minnesota Vikings.
