2023 NFL rookie QB report: How have the top five fared?

Four months after hearing their names called on draft night -- three within the first four picks -- the league's rookie quarterbacks are nearly through their first preseason. Bryce Young and Anthony Richardson were named starters early, and C.J. Stroud could be named a starter soon. Will Levis is competing for a backup spot, while Hendon Hooker is rehabbing a torn left ACL.

As these five quarterbacks have progressed through camp ahead of their first NFL season, they all have found themselves in varying stages of their young careers.
