The Commanders have had 70 quarterbacks start at least one game in the history of their franchise. Recently, the team has been notable for its instability at the quarterback position.

[2] Only two Washington quarterbacks have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame: Sammy Baugh (1937 1952) and Sonny Jurgensen (1964 1974). [4]
