MOBILE, Ala. — Nearly 12 years after the rule's revocation, momentum for a change swirled Sunday afternoon during the NFC championship game.
PHILADELPHIA, PA - JANUARY 29: Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Haason Reddick sacks San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy during the Championship game between the San Fransisco 49ers and the Philadelphia Eagles on January 29, 2023. MOBILE, Ala. — Nearly 12 years after the rule’s revocation, momentum for a change swirled Sunday afternoon during the NFC championship game.
The rule, for San Francisco, would have been of limited help. The 49ers were already starting their third quarterback of the season after Trey Lance fractured his ankle and Jimmy Garoppolo broke his foot. In the conference championship game, seventh-round rookie in his throwing elbow, and then veteran journeyman Josh Johnson was ruled out with concussion.
Jones said he expects league management to review the rule this offseason. One possible change could be adding a quarterback spot to the current game-day roster number, at minimum for playoffs. The league introduced more flexibility to roster restrictions in 2020 as COVID-19 sidelined players throughout the year. Practice squads were expanded, veteran practice-squad rules loosened, and teams were given the option to elevate players from the practice squad to active roster at week’s end.
