Few rookie quarterbacks have been able to reach 1,000 passing yards in four weeks, but the AFC has a rookie who is not only playing his first season but is poised to set new records.

When Patrick Mahomes was a rookie, his first year was impressive, as was Brock Purdy’s (no longer a rookie), who is playing his first season as a starter after impressing everyone in 2022.

He is not only the best rookie in the current season, but he is also the youngest starter among all the veterans and other young quarterbacks. In addition, he is leading a franchise that was sunk a couple of seasons ago.

What does CJ Stroud need to win the Rookie of the Year Award?

To win the Rookie of the Year award in the NFL, a player must typically have a statistically outstanding season, make a significant impact on their team’s success, and play in a lot of games. In addition to these factors, voters may also consider other factors such as the player’s versatility, leadership, and overall athleticism.
