The Denver Broncos benched quarterback Russell Wilson last week and turned the offense over to Jarrett Stidham.
Wilson ended his 2023 campaign ranked 21st among qualifying* quarterbacks with a 50.7 Total QBR rating (*ESPN’s season-long list only includes QBs with 20 action plays per team game).
ESPN’s Total QBR “values the quarterback on all play types on a 0-100 scale,” taking into account factors such as the defense faced, the QB’s actual contribution to a play and efficiency.
To see where Stidham stacks up, we’ve listed all 32 starting quarterbacks below, ranked in order of their Total QBR rating.
Stidham’s rating (31.3) is considerably lower than Wilson’s and it ranks 30th among current starters, but he only has a one-game sample size. In fact, multiple current starters listed below have a very small sample size, which skews the ratings.
With that caveat in mind, here’s a quick look at all 32 (projected) starting quarterbacks going into the final week of the 2023 NFL season.
