Tyson Lee (American football)

Tyson Paul Lee (born December 19, 1987) is a former American football quarterback who played for the Mississippi State Bulldogs during the 2008 and 2009 seasons.

Lee led his Columbus High School football team to the playoffs his senior year and was named his Region's most valuable player.

He did not receive any major conference offers out of high school, so he committed to play football for Itawamba Community College instead.

He enrolled as a walk-on at Mississippi State in January 2008, hoping to back up or possibly win the starting quarterback job from Wesley Carroll.

Highlights in 2009 included road wins over Vanderbilt,[5] in which Lee scored a game-winning rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter, and Kentucky[6] After Mississippi State, Lee worked as a scout in the St. Louis Rams organization, but left to work with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes at Mississippi State.
