Aaron Corp (born March 6, 1989) is a former American football quarterback. He was signed as undrafted free agent by the Buffalo Bills in 2012 and was briefly with the Dallas Cowboys. He played college football at Richmond after transferring from USC.
Corp had an outstanding high school career at Orange Lutheran High School. A dual-threat quarterback, Corp completed 212-of-311 (68.2%) of his passes for 2,750 yards, 21 touchdowns, and 7 interceptions, plus ran for 1,197 yards on 142 carries (8.4 avg.) with 12 TDs, in 2006. He also punted. Orange Lutheran went 14–1 and won the 2006 CIF Pac-5 Division and the California state Division II championships. He won the 2006 Glenn Davis Award for the best Southern California high school player.
Corp started his career the University of Southern California where he was a redshirted during the 2007 season, and entered the 2008 season as a possible back-up for starting quarterback Mark Sanchez, alongside Arkansas transfer Mitch Mustain.
During fall camp before the 2008 season, Sanchez suffered a dislocated left kneecap while warming up for practice; the injury sidelined Sanchez and threw his availability for the season opener at Virginia (and beyond) into question. As a result, Mustain and Corp began alternating repetitions with the first team offense and competing for the possible starting spot. After missing nearly three weeks, Sanchez was cleared to play in the opener on the final day of fall camp; Corp was selected as his back-up because he demonstrated a better command of the offense. However, head coach Pete Carroll kept the competition for the back-up spot open throughout the season, and the competition resulted in Mustain regaining the second spot for some games, and Corp for others, throughout the season.
