Question

The Rams have acquired Baker Mayfield, putting them in position to potentially have two former No. 1 overall picks throw touchdowns for them in the same season. (Los Angeles earlier had Matthew Stafford starting for them.) This has happened only three times previously, and the same quarterback was involved in all three instances. Who was that quarterback?

Answer

David Carr. The original draft pick of the Houston Texans, Carr in 2007 threw 3 TDs for Carolina. Vinny Testaverde threw 5 TDs for that team. And Carr in 2008 and 2009 seasons came off the bench to throw 2 and 1 touchdowns for the Giants (teams that included Eli Manning).
