Former National Football League quarterback Trent Dilfer, who recently retired after 14 seasons in the league, joined ESPN's NFL Primetime and the Sunday and Monday editions of SportsCenter as a studio analyst.

Dilfer won a Super Bowl with the Baltimore Ravens and spent time with five other teams, including his longest stint -- five seasons -- with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after being drafted in 1994.

He will also appear on Monday Night Countdown (ESPN airs Monday Night Football) and ESPN Radio.
