Which QB Has the Most Turnovers This Year?

Published in NFL Quarterbacks 1 min read

Kirk Cousins has recorded the most turnovers by a quarterback this year.

Specifically, Kirk Cousins has accumulated 18 turnovers this season. Turnovers in football encompass both interceptions thrown and fumbles lost, representing instances where the offense loses possession of the ball to the opposing team.

While the total number of turnovers is a direct measure of ball security issues, another related metric is the interception percentage (INT%), which indicates how often a quarterback throws an interception relative to their pass attempts. For context, here's a look at some quarterbacks with notable interception percentages from recent data:

Name Interception Percentage (INT%)
Kirk Cousins 3.5%
Baker Mayfield 3.0%
Will Levis 4.2%
Geno Smith 2.8%

This table highlights players with higher interception rates, although it's important to note that a higher percentage doesn't always directly equate to the highest total number of turnovers, as it depends on the volume of pass attempts and fumbles.
