List of starting quarterbacks in the NFL

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from NFL quarterback)

In American football, the starting quarterback is considered to be among the most important positions in sports.[1][2][3] They are among the most high-profile athletes in North America and are typically viewed as the team's leader.[4] The success of a National Football League (NFL) franchise often rests on the quarterback; thus, teams will go to great lengths to find a franchise quarterback to build around.[5]

List

[edit]
Note: The players listed here are the starting quarterbacks of each team's most recently played regular season game (Week 11 of the 2024 NFL season) and may not reflect roster changes made since that time. Because of this, quarterbacks that have been announced as replacement due to injury or otherwise should not be included until they make their start. Changes may be made in time for Thursday Night Football.
