Here are all the QBs the Commanders have had since winning their last Super Bowl

Since winning their last championship in the 1991-1992 season, the D.C. franchise has started 30+ QBs over the years.

WASHINGTON — As the Commanders continue their search for a franchise quarterback in the upcoming draft, we decided to turn back the clock and revisit at all the signal callers that have come and gone through Washington in the past 33 years. 

We begin with the 1991 season -- aka the last time Washington's football team held the title of Super Bowl champions and hoisted the Lombardi Trophy.

Each quarterback is listed below along with the number of games they started during the season.

For those of you counting, that's 35 starting quarterbacks in the 32 years since they were last crowned the champs. 

The Commanders are expected to draft a quarterback with the second overall pick this year, and fans are hoping to see significantly fewer signal callers on the field in the coming decades.
