  • Kyler Murray QB | MIN

    Cardinals' Kyler Murray: Wins Offensive Rookie honors

    Murray was voted AP Offensive Rookie of the Year on Saturday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Murray lived up to his billing as the first overall pick in the 2019 draft and has a bright future ahead of him after taking home this award. He's a premier asset in dynasty formats and will be on the radar in redraft leagues as well as he continues to mature as the Cardinals' starting quarterback.

  • Easton Stick QB | IND

    Chargers' Easton Stick: Ready to compete in 2020?

    Stick and Tyrod Taylor are the only quarterbacks under contract with the Chargers for 2020, Alex Barth of 98.5 The Sports Hub reports.

    With Philip Rivers rumored to be headed for a new team, it isn't out of the question for Stick to be part of a position battle during training camp. Of course, the 24-year-old likely would be the underdog in a 1v1 competition with Taylor, and there's also a pretty good chance the Chargers use significant cap space or an early draft pick on a quarterback. The 2019 fifth-round pick was a healthy scratch throughout his rookie season, serving as the No. 3 QB behind Rivers and Taylor.

  • Mitch Trubisky QB | TEN

    Bears' Mitchell Trubisky: Recovering from shoulder surgery

    Trubisky recently underwent surgery to address the partially torn labrum in his left shoulder, Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com reports.

    Trubisky suffered the injury to his non-throwing shoulder Week 4 of the regular season, but he missed only one game before returning to start the Bears' final 11 contests. The Bears haven't revealed a precise timeline for Trubisky's recovery, though the procedure isn't expected to impact his availability for training camp. The 25-year-old signal-caller is set to enter the final year of his rookie contract with the Bears when the 2020 season kicks off, though the team has until May 3 to make a decision regarding his fifth-year option for 2021.

  • Joshua Dobbs QB | DET

    Jaguars' Joshua Dobbs: Limited to reserve duty

    Dobbs didn't see the field with the Jaguars in 2019.

    Dobbs was acquired by the Jaguars from the Steelers after Nick Foles broke his collarbone in the season opener, but rookie Gardner Minshew played extremely well in Foles' absence and eventually took full control of the starting job. All three quarterbacks remain under contract for 2020, potentially leaving Dobbs as the odd man out.

  • Marcus Mariota QB | WAS

    Titans' Marcus Mariota: Searching for fresh start

    Mariota passed for 1,203 yards, seven touchdowns and two interceptions across six games as the Titans' starter in 2019.

    Mariota was benched after leading the team to a 2-4 record to begin the season. Though he avoided turnovers, he struggled to get the ball out in rhythm, taking 25 sacks in his short stint under center. Mariota is likely to hit the open market this offseason as his rookie contract has expired, and the team appears poised to commit to Ryan Tannehill as its starter in 2020. Though Mariota has disappointed relative to his status as the number two overall pick in the 2015 draft, he has shown flashes of promise and is still just 26 years old. He could sign with a quarterback needy team and immediately compete for a starting job.

  • Tyrod Taylor QB | GB

    Chargers' Tyrod Taylor: Quiet as backup in 2019

    Taylor appeared in eight games during the 2019 season, completing four of six passes for 33 yards and one touchdown while adding 10 rushes for seven yards.

    Taylor operated in a backup role for the Chargers this season, playing behind starting quarterback Philip Rivers apart from a few specialty formations. Rivers will become an unrestricted free agent once the 2019 season concludes, leaving Taylor, who has one year left on his contract, as the potential starter if Rivers decides to sign elsewhere. The Chargers could explore options in the draft, but Taylor's past experience as an NFL starter should give him a good chance of being the primary signal-caller for the 2020 season if Rivers explores other options.

  • Brian Hoyer QB | LV

    Colts' Brian Hoyer: Starts one game in 2019

    Hoyer completed passes in two games during the 2019 season, connecting on 35 of 65 attempts for 372 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions.

    Hoyer technically appeared in four games, but in two of those contests he was only asked to take a knee. All of the journeyman's extensive action came in Weeks 9 and 10 when starting quarterback Jacoby Brissett went down with a knee injury. Hoyer is under contract for the 2020 season and should return as the Colts backup signal-caller.

  • Trace McSorley QB | WAS

    Ravens' Trace McSorley: Minimal action as rookie

    McSorley appeared in one game as a rookie, taking one carry for one yard.

    Veteran Robert Griffin was entrenched as the backup quarterback, leaving little room for McSorley to even be active most weeks. McSorley had a chance to see some action in the season finale against Pittsburgh when Lamar Jackson was inactive, but he only played one snap. With Robert Griffin under contract for another season, McSorley has his work cut out for him in terms of remaining on the 53-man roster, especially if Baltimore opts to carry just two quarterbacks.

  • Nate Sudfeld QB | SF

    Eagles' Nate Sudfeld: Doesn't play in 2019

    Sudfeld wasn't active for any of the Eagles' 16 games in the 2019 season.

    The Eagles clearly think highly of Sudfeld's potential, as they paid him $3.1 million in 2019 to serve as the No. 3 quarterback behind Carson Wentz (head) and Josh McCown (hamstring). If McCown doesn't return for another season -- the 40-year-old suffered a torn hamstring in the postseason -- Sudfeld could become Wentz's primary backup in 2020 should he be re-signed. Sudfeld is set to become an unrestricted free agent in March.

  • Tim Boyle QB | TEN

    Packers' Tim Boyle: Throws first NFL passes in 2019

    Boyle played in three games in 2019, completing three of four passes for 15 yards.

    The Packers like what they saw out of the 25-year-old signal caller during training camp enough that they cut former second-round pick Deshone Kizer to make Boyle the backup to Aaron Rodgers. Boyle took a few knees in blowout games and threw his first NFL passes in a blowout loss to the 49ers in Week 12, but he otherwise stayed on the sidelines while Rodgers stayed healthy. Boyle has another year under contract with the Packers, but there's no guarantee that they keep him around in 2020, especially if they try to bring in Rodgers' successor through the draft.
