The NFL made a rule change this offseason that will allow teams to have an emergency third quarterback not count against the game-day roster. There is a catch, though, as the QB3 has to be on the active roster in order to not count against the game-day roster (practice squad elevations will count against the game-day roster).
Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton was asked about the new rule after the team kicked off organized team activities last week.
