Well the ones who hand off and watch will definitely last longer than the ones who keep it and run.if quarterback is a typically a passing position than of course the ones who specialize at passing will last longer than the ones who specialize as runners
Not surprised. Running QBs always get hurt.

Watson
Wentz
Haven't been the same well I know Watson has pretty much recovered but I argue that's he's not 100 percent to what he was before he tore his ACL.
Brady is playing at 42, moon played til 43, and many other pocket passers played many years.Steve Young played until he was 38. He had 70 carries for nearly 500 yards at the age of 37.
John Elway averaged 50 carries for 300 yards per season over his career. He retired at 38.
Russell Wilson has never missed a game in his career.
Surely you understand the difference between the likelihood of something happening and incidents of something happening.Watson tore his ACL in practice
Confirmed: Practicing QBs more injury-prone
When people talk about "running" QBs I often wonder what they're really saying

wikipediaIn addition to the early playoff exits, Young suffered a series of injuries that forced him to miss several games from 1995 to 1997. Young entered the 1998 season at age 37 and some began to wonder if his skills would diminish because of his history of injuries and a general decline in his game due to age.
Young was plagued by concussions throughout his career. During a Week 3 Monday Night Football game against the Arizona Cardinals, Young was violently sacked by Cardinals' cornerback Aeneas Williamsdue to a missed blocking assignment by 49ers' running back Lawrence Phillips. Young was knocked out of the game with a concussion, and didn't return again for the rest of the season due to symptoms of post-concussion syndrome. The concussion he suffered against the Cardinals was reportedly his second in a season that was only three weeks old, and the seventh (at least) of his career. Young was forced to retire at the end of the year; the team informed him that he would be released if he did not retire. Although Young was offered a job as the Broncos starting quarterback, he retired because of his repeated concussions.

Giving a few samples doesn’t make the “more likely” argument.
Are you honestly telling me that a qb who runs running plays is not more likely to get injured than the qb who hands off and watches the rb run?
That would mean that no an ever has gotten injured running.
