He guided the Knights to the Louisiana High School Athletic Association Class AAA (the top classification at the time) state championship in 1968.
He played college football for the Arkansas Razorbacks and was selected by the Bills in the third round of the 1973 NFL draft
Ferguson played high school football in Shreveport, Louisiana, for Woodlawn High School.
The Buffalo Bills selected Ferguson in the third round of the 1973 NFL draft.
Although he is most famous for playing with the Bills from 1973 to 1984, Ferguson also played three seasons for the Detroit Lions, two seasons for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and one final season with the Indianapolis Colts.
Ferguson's number 12 with the Bills is now retired for his successor with the team, Hall of Famer Jim Kelly.
Ferguson placed in the top 10 in pass attempts five times, completions and passing yards four times, passing touchdowns six times, and yards per pass three times.
In 1975 Ferguson tied Fran Tarkenton for the NFL lead with 25 touchdown passes and compiled a passer rating of 81.3.
Ferguson also surpassed 20 touchdown passes in three other seasons: 1980, 1981, 1983.

His three losses came from the Cincinnati Bengals in those same 1981 playoffs, the San Diego Chargers the year before in 1980 (a game in which he played the entire contest with a sprained ankle), and in 1974 to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
At one time he shared, with Ron Jaworski, the NFL record for consecutive starts by a quarterback with 107, until he was replaced by Joe Dufek on September 30, 1984.
He retired after the 1990 season after playing only one game with the Colts.
In 1995, Ferguson briefly came out of retirement to serve as a backup quarterback for the San Antonio Texans of the Canadian Football League's South Division.
Kay Stephenson, who had coached Ferguson in his last year in Buffalo, was coach of San Antonio at the time and needed an inexpensive backup who knew Stephenson's system after starter David Archer was injured midseason.

In January 2008, Ferguson was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia.
