Los Angeles Rams fans sit in wonder at career turnarounds of quarterbacks who were either formerly on the roster or were within the team's grasp. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are powered by one-time LA quarterback Baker Mayfield. The Indianapolis Colts are powered by quarterback Daniel Jones, a player who showed up on the radar several times as a backup option.
Both veterans have led their respective teams to 5-1 starts. Both signal-callers have been recycled after struggling for years. It comes down to finding the right player for the right system. As such, it buoys optimism when considering taking a chance on a new player.
