Just seeing Joe Burrow’s out for the year now and it’s been brutal. How many backup QBs have started games? Is it a NFL modern record?

Aaron Rodgers out for year Kirk Cousins out for year Daniel Jones out for year Deshaun Watson out for year Joe Burrow out for year

Not to mention Justin Fields, Matt Stafford, Kyler Murray, etc. who have been banged up

Is it though? Not many team sports have such dedicated positions. Lose your starting left guard? Or your tight end? You’re fucked. I’m not even talking QB. There are only a small number of backups for each role.

Also, in other sports you don’t see season ending injuries on what seems like every single game day.
