Predicting When Each Rookie NFL QB Will Start 1st First Game in 2021

In each of the last 13 NFL seasons, at least one rookie quarterback has started in Week 1.

In fact, at least one first-year signal-caller has started in each of the NFL's past 228 regular-season weeks—a streak that dates back to Week 11 of the 2007 season (John Beck for the Miami Dolphins).

It certainly looks as though both of those trends will continue with five first-round picks part of this year's rookie quarterback class, but nothing's guaranteed to any of those guys or the five quarterbacks selected beyond Round 1.

Let's make some calculated guesses at when we might see each of those 10 in 2021.
