Ah, Washington Football fans. You know you love a team that keeps things interesting. Especially at the most crucial position on the field: quarterback.

How Many Qbs Has Washington Had Since 2000 |
More QBs Than Nicknames, We Swear
Seriously, has this team had more quarterbacks or nicknames? Redskins, Football Team, Commanders... the list goes on, and it seems there's a new QB to learn every time the name changes! We're pretty sure they have a "Welcome Aboard, New Quarterback" pamphlet at FedEx Field that's already worn thin from overuse.
Tip: Skim only after you’ve read fully once.
By our best count, there have been a whopping 27 different QBs taking snaps for Washington since 2000. That's more quarterbacks than some fans have had hot dogs at games!
Tip: Make mental notes as you go.

This list of QBs is a wild ride, folks. We've had legends like Mark Brunell, who, while past his prime, brought a certain je ne sais quoi. We've had fan favorites like Donovan McNabb, whose scrambling prowess and infectious energy had us glued to the edge of our seats (even if it sometimes led to questionable decisions).
Tip: Let the key ideas stand out.
Then there were the... well, let's just say memorable ones. Remember Jason Campbell's glorious left-handed spiral that sometimes defied the laws of physics? How about Rex Grossman's cannon arm that occasionally resulted in interceptions that could be seen from space? These guys, bless their hearts, definitely provided entertainment value.
Note: Skipping ahead? Don’t miss the middle sections.

Fast forward to today, and Washington's QB situation is still a bit of a mystery. Will Taylor Heinicke be the answer? Maybe they'll draft a rookie phenom. Or perhaps they'll unearth another veteran looking for a second chance. One thing's for sure, Washington fans are ready to get behind a QB they can believe in, a QB who can finally break the cycle.
