2026 NFL Offseason - The Quarterback Carousel

Question

Open answer to put your own as info comes in (or you want to speculate).

Will resolve "YES" to any Quarterback pairing (starter as defined as the player that takes the team's offense's first regular season snap) that was not together for the start of the 2025-26 NFL season (i.e. Josh Allen - Bills would not be valid, and I would resolve it N/A) that is the starter for the first game of the 2025-26 NFL season for the team (injuries count if a QB would be a starter but can't because they are injured then they would resolve as "NO").

Will resolve after every team's first game.

Try to use the following format:

Tom Brady - Raiders

Teams and players can be repeated in any combination as long it's a new combination.
