Cardinals name Carson Beck starting QB: Rookie faces Aaron Donald, Myles Garrett in NFL debut
If the 2026 NFL season feels like an unprecedented year for unheralded rookie quarterbacks, that's because it is.
Summary
If the 2026 NFL season feels like an unprecedented year for unheralded rookie quarterbacks, that's because it is. With the Arizona Cardinals (3-6) announcing Carson Beck as their starting quarterback for Week 10 against the Los Angeles Rams (5-4), he will now be the third rookie quarterback drafted outside of the first two rounds to start a game this season. The other two were undrafted rookies -- Jalon Daniels of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Joe Fagnano of the Baltimore Ravens . That hasn't happened since 1987.
