Backup QBs 6-0 After Week 1 Benchings

Backup quarterbacks continue to thrive as six QBs who didn't start in Week 1 have since started and won all six games.

Through three weeks, six quarterbacks who began the season as backups have since started and won their games. The group includes Vikings' Carson Wentz (Week 2 win), Seahawks' Drew Lock (Week 2 win), Falcons' Michael Penix Jr. (Week 3 win), Giants' Jameis Winston (Week 3 win), Washington's Marcus Mariota (Week 6 win), and Bears' Case Keenum (Week 3 win).

In Week 4, two more backup quarterbacks are expected to make their first starts: Bears' Tyson Bagent vs. Jets and Buccaneers' Jalon Daniels vs. Packers. This trend highlights the increasing importance of having multiple capable quarterbacks ready to step in and perform well when needed. cat-cross.com
