Question
Two rookie quarterbacks will be starting in playoff games this weekend, and both on the road – Bo Nix at Buffalo, and Jayden Daniels at Tampa Bay. Who was the last rookie quarterback to start and win a road playoff game? He is an active player.
Answer
Russell Wilson. Twelve years ago, Wilson helped Seattle (as a wild card) win 24-14 at Washington (which also had a rookie quarterback – Robert Griffin). Two other rookie quarterbacks have won road playoff games in the Super Bowl era – Joe Flacco and Mark Sanchez.
