Yes, some owners have discussed limiting quarterback contracts
A new collusion case against the league could be looming.

DC4’s cap hit is $60 million in 2026. Potential out in 2025The so called market value for starting QB is ridiculous..... would love some help with the cap when we sign a QB for 60 mil a year
I still remember the days when Taysom Hill was taking snaps under center for run plays, and people were getting upset that he was taking snaps from Drew, Jameis, Andy Dalton, and Derek.Isn’t the trend towards positionless players? Why not just designate every player on the roster as a QB and spend, spend, spend. What constitutes a Qb? Throwing 1 forward pass, making 1 handoff or “QB” sneak?
CarrCarr and Danny Dimes deals are going to look like bargains real soon.
Owners will never agree to a system where any payment to a player doesn't count against the cap. I also can't see a way that the NFLPA will agree to limiting a players salary, so I doubt anything will change any time soon on this issue.I like the idea of a high value player execption. It would be one player per franchise and not more than 20-25 percent of the salary cap. It would be up to 20 to 25 percent over the cap. For instance if the cap is 100 million, and a team is at already at 85 million, they could play a single additional player up to 35 million per year and exceed the cap without any consequences.
If a team does exceed 20 percent, they could then do so by an additional 5 percent of the overall cap but they would then pay a dollar for dollar tax over the 20 percent threshold and that money goes into a general fund to be distributed to all of the teams. So in the scenario above, a team could pay a franchise QB or other player 40 million, but they would play an additional 5 million in luxury tax.
He's saying their should be a cap on what you can pay a QB I think.No disrespect intended with the reaction...I just truly don't understand your proposed solution. Can you expand on your point?
If your point is for the owners to impose a position bucket cap across all players then what you're going to get is a player union strike.
