Hit NFL Series Returns to Netflix With 4 New Quarterbacks
Netflix's acclaimed American Football documentary series Quarterback is returning for a third season this summer - with a new team of legendary players set to feature in Season 3.
Seasons 1 and 2 followed the lives of top-tier quarterbacks such as Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, and Kirk Cousins across the National Football League (NFL) seasons, documenting the trials and tribulations of their professional and personal lives. Now, four new faces will be joining the series.
"Washington Commanders' Jayden Daniels joins Quarterback after taking the NFL by storm as a rookie in 2024," Netflix revealed in an announcement on their companion website, Tudum. "Setting multiple league records while leading the Commanders to a 12-5 record and a game away from the Super Bowl, Daniels was nearly unanimously named NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year. After putting the league on notice with a historic debut season in Washington, Daniels enters Year 2 with the pressure, attention, and momentum all dialed up."
In addition to Daniels, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' Baker Mayfield will also be joining the cast. The star quarterback "bounced around the league a bit early in his career, but has certainly found a home - and a growing family - with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, earning two Pro Bowl selections while replacing the legendary Tom Brady," Netflix's synopsis reads. "Entering his third season with the Bucs in 2025, the expectations couldn't be higher for Mayfield and his talented receiving corp."
Cam Ward of the Tennessee Titans, the newest recruit for the NFL out of the cast, sees his first year captured in the new documentary series, following his selection as #1 draft pick. "The record-setting college QB earned the Davey O'Brien and Manning awards as one of the country's top quarterbacks in his senior season at the University of Miami, and now takes his talents to the professional level, already the face of his new team," Netflix.
Last, but certainly not least, is the eldest of the four - the Cincinnati Bengals' Joe Flacco, who, as the series description points out, "has been in the NFL almost as long as Ward has been alive." The 41-year-old and former Super Bowl MVP will be "the first player to be traded during a season of Quarterback, offering a unique look at the business of the NFL."
"As he finds his way from the Cleveland Browns to divisional rival the Cincinnati Bengals, Flacco must learn a fresh playbook and build relationships with new teammates, all while balancing fatherhood."
Quarterback Season 3 debuts on Netflix on July 14.
