Question

In 2021, Russell Wilson threw 19 more touchdowns than interceptions for Seattle but got traded to Denver. He again threw 19 more touchdowns than interceptions last year, but now he’ll be playing for Pittsburgh. In NFL history, who are the only two quarterbacks who have finished with an even larger TD-interception ratio (20-plus for both guys), then played for different teams the next year?

Answer

Alex Smith and Carson Wentz. Smith was traded from Kansas City to Washington in 2018 after finishing with a 26-5 ratio. Four years later, Washington traded for Wentz the year after he threw 27 TDs versus only 7 interceptions for the Colts.
