William Scott Musgrave (born November 11, 1967) is an American football coach and former quarterback who is the quarterbacks coach for the Denver Broncos of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at the University of Oregon.
A standout athlete at Grand Junction High School, Musgrave was named the Colorado High School Athlete of the Year in 1985, after registering 30 touchdown passes (a state record). He also received the Denver Post Gold Helmet Award as the state's top scholar athlete.
He accepted a scholarship from the University of Oregon, where he became a four-year starter at quarterback and a three-year team captain. He led the Ducks to its first bowl game in 26 years and to back-to-back bowl appearances for the first time in school history. In 1990 as a senior, he was named team MVP, first-team All-conference quarterback, GTE Academic All-American of the Year, and earned a Scholar-Athlete Award by the National Football Foundation and Hall of Fame.
He finished as the school's all-time leader in passing yards and total offense, until being passed by Marcus Mariota in 2014. He set 15 passing records, while his 60 career passing touchdowns and 8,343 career yardage ranked second only to John Elway in Pacific-10 Conference history.
In 1996, he was inducted into the Colorado High School Activities Association Hall of Fame. In 2000, he was inducted into to the Oregon University Athletics Hall of Fame.
Musgrave was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the fourth round (106th overall) of the 1991 NFL Draft. He went into training camp with Troy Aikman, Babe Laufenberg and Cliff Stoudt at quarterback. On August 25, the Cowboys traded for Steve Beuerlein to improve the backup position and released Musgrave and Stoudt, opting to keep just 2 quarterbacks.
