EAGAN, Minn. — The quarterback position took even more heat — and hits — than usual last season around the NFL. Jones, Mahomes and Nix have been cleared for full activity, stabilizing or energizing the huddle in Indianapolis, Kansas City and Denver. There’s no arguing the connection to the perpetually shuffling depth chart at quarterback, with 42 starters over those first 27 years. 1 overall starting their season opener — following Cam Ward, Caleb Williams, Bryce Young, Trevor Lawrence, Joe Burrow and Murray. Baker Mayfield in 2018 with the Browns was the last quarterback who didn’t start his first game as the first overall pick.
