Rule change for this year - a team can dress 46 players including 3 quarterbacks and the 3 qb's can play anytime during the game. Last year if the 3rd qb played before the 4th quarter he had to finish the game and the first 2 qbs couldn't play again.

Could have come in handy last year with Tebow. This year if Tebow starts doesn't really matter.

And even backups are usually well compensated...

One way owners can make a show of giving money to the players...96 quarterbacks in the league, would easily make for a lot of player revenue.

Brady Quinn is stoked.
