The 'Most NFL passing-touchdowns' quiz

Whether or not Michael Penix Jr. is ready for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season for the Atlanta Falcons, it doesn’t seem like Kirk Cousins will still be an option for new head coach Kevin Stefanski. 

Cousins, who signed a four-year, $ 180 million contract before the 2024 campaign, started 14 games in his first season with the Falcons before getting benched for Penix Jr. 

He started another eight this year after Penix Jr.’s season-ending knee injury, and went a combined 12-10 with 5,229 yards, 28 touchdowns and 21 interceptions between 2024 and 2025. But at 37 years old and with a regime change in Atlanta, Cousins is expected to be released this offseason. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Cousins is a 14-year NFL veteran and ranks 18th all-time in total touchdown passes between the regular season and playoffs with 303. How many of the all-time NFL touchdown pass leaders can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
