2026 NFL Backup Quarterbacks to Start Which Week Odds

In the lead-up to the NFL season, we've sent you multiple updates on the odds for the first quarterback to be benched.

Tua Tagovailoa opened as the early favorite, but Deshaun Watson quickly took over the top spot once he was officially named the starter. Rounding out the rest of the Top 5 are Geno Smith, Kirk Cousins and Jacoby Brissett. 

With these veterans on the hot seat, the big question is: When will their replacements get their first start?

The oddsmakers at BetOnline Sports & Casino have already priced up those scenarios, along with a special prop bet on whether Steelers rookie Drew Allar will start a game this season.

When will Cade Klubnik make his first start?

Over/Under Week 13 

When will Carson Beck make his first start?

Over/Under Week 14

When will Fernando Mendoza make his first start?

Over/Under Week 8

When will Shedeur Sanders make his first start of the 2026 Regular Season?

Over/Under Week 11

Will Drew Allar make a start during the 2026 Regular Season?

Yes +100

No -140

While Gambling911.com has been bullish on the Browns over the past two weeks, action was balanced on this one with the line only moving up a half point over the course of the week, making this game less attractive in terms of a glaring "must bet" situation.
