With Rodgers and Cousins on IR, Stafford also injured, Tannehill on the bench and Russ having a bye week, this week might have broken the record for the youngest QBs ever. In fact, not a single pass was a thrown by a player born in the 1980s this week.
The oldest player to throw a pass was Taysom Hill at 33. Hill, Geno (33), Carr (32), Heinicke (30) and Dak (30) were the only players older than 28.
The attempt-adjusted average age of passers this week was 26 years and 165 days, 3 days older than Daniel Jones.
The average could have been even lower, had Ridder (24) not lost his job to Heinicke (30), had Jarren Hall (25) not been replaced by Dobbs (28), had Anthony Richardson (21) not gotten injured and replaced by Minshew (27) and had Deshaun Watson (28) not returned in place of Dorian Thompson-Robinson (23) this week.
