Not to mention the remaining starting QB's mostly have names that can't be shortened (to my knowledge)
Ryan Fitzpatrick
Ryan Tannehill
Tyrod Taylor
Brian Hoyer/Ryan Mallett
Blake Bortles
Peyton Manning
Derek Carr
Kirk Cousins
Aaron Rodgers
Jameis (um, I guess he could go with Jamie or Jimbo?) Winston
Carson Palmer
Colin Kapernick
Jay Cutler
So that leaves us with:
Andrew Luck
Marcus Mariotta
Phillip Rivers
Russel Wilson
as QBs who don't shorten their name to the informal version.
