On this lazy college football Saturday with practically zero competitive games, even Miami (FL) vs Florida became a snooze fest, I went down the YouTube rabbit hole. And stumbled across a video of emergency quarterbacks pressed into action. One made years ago before Kendall Hinton or Christian McCaffrey were stuck in this unenvious positions. It’s a head coach’s (and fans) nightmare. You have no quarterbacks left – how do you still run an offense?
Fortunately, the league has expanded its emergency quarterback rules, especially in the wake of the 49ers being stuck with McCaffrey in the 2022 NFC Championship Game.
