Nathaniel Joseph Montana (born October 3, 1989) is a former American football quarterback. After walking-on at Notre Dame as a freshman in 2008, he transferred to Pasadena City College in 2009, went back to Notre Dame in 2010, transferred to Montana in 2011, and finally transferred to West Virginia Wesleyan in 2012.^[1] Montana is the son of Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana.

Early life

In high school, Montana was a reserve quarterback at De La Salle High School in Concord, California, a suburb east of San Francisco.

College career

After graduating from high school in 2008, he enrolled at Notre Dame and joined the Fighting Irish football team's coach Charlie Weis as a walk-on, with the hope of landing a scholarship as a sophomore.^[2] Following Montana's freshman year at Notre Dame, he found himself well down the depth chart at quarterback. In order to increase his playing time, he withdrew from Notre Dame in 2009 and tried out for Mt. SAC's football program but would not be the starting quarterback and later enrolled at Pasadena City College in southern California as a redshirt freshman.^[3] Montana re-enrolled at Notre Dame in January 2010. He was the quarterback behind Tommy Rees and Dayne Crist.^[4] He played in three games for the Fighting Irish as a junior in 2010, and was 9 for 18 for 116 yards with an interception.^[5] On February 14, 2011, Montana confirmed he was transferring to the University of Montana, a top FCS program in the Big Sky Conference. As the transfer was from FBS to FCS, he was eligible to play immediately. At Montana, Nate became the only player on the roster with his name on the front and back of his jersey.^[6] He transferred to West Virginia Wesleyan, an NCAA Division II program, in May 2012.^[7]
