I'm confused.  The prompt question started out:  " Of the following 8 great FL hs quarterbacks who also played that position in the NFL . . . ."  So, that means the person had to play the position of QB in both high school and in the pros, right?.  I don't recall Collinsworth ever playing QB in the pros.   According to his NFL stats, he had a total of 7 rushing carries for -15 yards (I'm guessing most all of these were reverses) and a grand total of one pass attempt (an incomplete pass; possibly thrown after taking the handoff on a reverse).   Did he actually line up under center (or take a shotgun snap) in a game?   Does that mean that every player who takes a wildcat snap in the pros has played the position of QB?

What I wrote was confusing and thanks for pointing out.  I should not have included Collinsworth in the exercise.  His claim to fame was receiving.  I fixed above.
