In addition to the NFL, Pisarkiewicz played in the Canadian Football League (CFL), United States Football League (USFL), BAFA National Leagues in Britain and Liga Nacional de Fútbol Americano in Spain during his career.

College career

After graduating from McCluer High School in Florissant, Missouri, Pisarkiewicz was recruited by Tennessee but joined the Missouri Tigers; he was considered the best passer at Missouri since Paul Christman and drew attention from NFL scouts.^[2] In 1975, Pisarkiewicz led the Big 8 in passing yards, and was second in passing touchdowns.^[3]

Professional career

NFL

Pisarkiewicz was drafted 19th overall by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 1977 NFL draft, apparently at the insistence of owner Bill Bidwill.^[4] Expected to take over the starting job from the aging Jim Hart, he failed to impress head coach Bud Wilkinson and started just four games in his time in St. Louis.^[5]^[6]

After leaving St. Louis, Pisarkiewicz played in one game in 1980 for the Green Bay Packers.^[7]

CFL

In 1982, Pisarkiewicz was picked up by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.^[8] However, his opportunities there proved limited and he soon moved back to the US.

Birmingham Bulls

In 1989, following the dissolution of the Cardiff Tigers, Pisarkiewicz joined the Birmingham Bulls. Due to the absence of starting quarterback Russ Jensen. Pisarkiewicz salary was the highest in British American football.^[13] Pisarkiewicz played in one game for the Bulls, against the Dublin Celts before resigning due to internal strife.^[14]
