It was a hanging curve, and Marcus Mariota knocked it off the wall -- well, David Letterman's comedy writers did, anyway.
On Monday night, the Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback appeared on the "Late Show with David Letterman" and delivered the nightly Top-10 list -- 10 thoughts running through his mind when he won the Heisman on Saturday night.
When he got to No. 3, this is what he said:
"I'd like to play in the NFL. Does New York have any professional teams?"
Good one. The New York Jets and New York Giants have a combined record of 8-20, so anything is fair game.
Mariota is the presumptive No. 1 overall pick for 2015 -- assuming he leaves college. Right now, the Jets are sixth in the draft order, meaning they have no shot unless they trade up.
