Cody Pickett
Cody J. Pickett (born June 30, 1980) is an American former professional football player who was a quarterback in the National Football League (NFL) and Canadian Football League (CFL). He played college football for the Washington Huskies and was selected in the seventh round of the 2004 NFL draft by the San Francisco 49ers.
Born and raised on a ranch in Caldwell, Idaho, Pickett was a four-sport athlete at Caldwell High School and graduated in 1999. He lettered in football, basketball, golf, and rodeo, in which he was a national champion. Originally recruited by Jim Lambright at Washington, Pickett accepted a scholarship from new head coach Rick Neuheisel to play for the Huskies.
Pickett's family home was located off Chicken Dinner Road, near Caldwell.
As a true freshman at Washington in 1999, Pickett was the backup to starter Marques Tuiasosopo and saw limited action; he was granted a medical redshirt for an ailing back in the last half of the season. He was the backup again to Tuiasosopo in 2000; the Huskies went 11–1, won the Rose Bowl over Purdue, and finished third in the final polls.
Pickett was the starting quarterback at UW for three seasons from 2001–03, where his primary target was wide receiver Reggie Williams. Rather than enter the 2003 NFL draft in the spring, Pickett chose to return to Washington for his senior season at age 23. His senior season saw a head coaching change, as Neuheisel was dismissed in the summer of 2003 and replaced with Keith Gilbertson. He was considered a Heisman Trophy candidate and written up in Sports Illustrated, but a shoulder injury that year hurt his chances.
Pickett held the Huskies' single-season record for passing yards (4,458) from 2002 until 2022, when Michael Penix Jr. passed for 4,641 yards. However, Pickett played 12 games in 2002 while Penix played 13 games in 2022, so Pickett holds the single-season record for passing yards per game.

Pickett was selected in the seventh round (217th overall) of the 2004 NFL draft by the San Francisco 49ers. Pickett started the 2005 season as the fourth-string quarterback, but became the starter after Tim Rattay was traded, and Alex Smith and Ken Dorsey were injured. Pickett played on special teams most of the season, an unusual role for a quarterback. He also played safety and wide receiver during practice.
