Green Bay’s Jordan Love has just finished one of the most unique regular seasons in modern NFL history. He was a quarterback taken in the first round of the draft who didn’t see the field for a single play during his rookie year.
It’s been 15 years since that has happened in the NFL. The last rookie first round pick who never got on the field was Washington’s Jason Campbell in 2005. In fact, every first round QB has started at least one game in his rookie year since 2011. That was the season Jake Locker had to settle for five non-starting appearances for the Tennessee Titans.
