An official NFL football is slightly larger than high school or other professional leagues. The length should measure about 11 inches from tip to tip, and the in circumference at the center of the football should measure about 22 inches.imilar to other levels of football, the NFL uses an egg-shaped football, but the NFL has specific rules to the size, shape and materials used for the football. The Digest of Rules of the NFL explains the official size requirements for the football, along with other basic rules for playing the game.
If you laid out all the starting NFL quarterbacks from the 2016 season head-to-toe, not only would it be an incredibly weird thing to do, but they would equal a 67-yard gain. Specifically, the combined heights of all 32 starting QBs is 201 feet and three inches. Houston Texans quarterback Brock Osweiler is the leagueâs tallest signal caller. Heâs 6â8â. The shortest is Russell Wilson at 5â11â. Wilson is the only starting quarterback under six-feet tall and one of three under 6â2â (Drew Brees 6â0â and Tyrod Taylor 6â1â are the other too). Ten starting QBs are 6â4â.
