Kyle Orton celebrates birthday No. 40 (Nov. 14, 2022) as the former star quarterback reflects on his Purdue career and family life. Residing in his home state of Iowa, Orton led Purdue to four straight bowl appearances from 2001-04, and is the most recent Boilermaker quarterback named first-team All-Big Ten in his senior year of 2004 and ranks in the top five in Purdue annals in just about all passing categories. He also enjoyed a decade-long NFL career, drafted originally by the Chicago Bears.
