The 'Starting NFL QBs in 2025-26' quiz

Quarterback is widely considered the most important position in professional sports, and while some teams are able to get through the entire year with their Week 1 starter, others are forced to turn to second (and sometimes third) options. 

Whether due to injury or poor performance, some squads are forced to plumb the depths of their roster or elsewhere (looking at you, Indianapolis) in order to give their teams a chance to win. For just the ninth time in NFL history but fourth since 2020, more than 60 different quarterbacks made at least one start over the course of the season with 10 making their first NFL start. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. How many of those quarterbacks can you name in eight minutes?

Good luck!
