\"GRONOWSKI<\/p>\n

There’s only one winningest quarterback in Division I college football history.<\/p>\n

He’s the newest member of the\u00a0Miami Dolphins<\/a>.<\/p>\n

His name is Mark Gronowski, and he signed with the Dolphins as an undrafted free agent after the 2026 NFL Draft concluded.<\/p>\n

Former South Dakota State and Iowa QB Mark Gronowski \u2014 the winningest quarterback in college football history \u2014 is signing with the Dolphins, source said.\u00a0pic.twitter.com\/vGEuTlFy1M<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero)\u00a0April 25, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

Gronowski did the majority of his winning at the FCS level with South Dakota State.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

He transferred to the Big Ten to play for Iowa in 2025 and had a solid season as well.<\/p>\n

At this point, you might be wondering: How did the winningest QB in D-I history not get drafted?<\/p>\n

Well, for starters, Gronowski isn’t all that great at throwing the football.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

He’s a big, physical guy who can run and take contact and show grit and grind his way to victories.<\/p>\n

At SDSU, he was quite prolific statistically.<\/p>\n

At Iowa, he was more of a find a way to win kind of guy.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

He’s got so much experience that he could be useful in a QB room at the next level anyway.<\/p>\n

His athleticism is impressive, too, which the Dolphins might want to see up close.<\/p>\n

It’s certainly a fascinating addition, even if it doesn’t work out.<\/p>\n
