Since WW2, only 4 times has a NFL team started 7 different Week 1 QBs in 7 straight years - 2 of the 4 streaks are active and both involve Carson Wentz and Jacoby Brissett.
The non-active streaks were the Chargers between 1987 to 1993 (Dan Fouts/Babe Laufenberg/Jim McMahon/Mark Vlasic/John Friesz/Bob Gagliano/Stan Humphries) and the Browns from 2013 to 2019 (listed below).
The actives ones:
The Colts
- 2017 - Scott Tolzien (Benched after the opener, never played in a NFL game again)
- 2018 - Andrew Luck (Retired after this season)
- 2019 - Jacoby Brissett (Slap my salami, he’s now a Commie - with the Commanders)
- 2020 - Philip Rivers (Retired after this season)
- 2021 - Carson Wentz (Currently a free agent)
- 2022 - Matt Ryan (Signed with CBS Sports)
- 2023 - Most likely Anthony Richardson or Gardner Minshew
The Commanders
- 2017 - Kirk Cousins (Signed with Vikings after this season)
- 2018 - Alex Smith (Suffered horrible leg injuries in Week 11)
