One of the most exclusive clubs for NFL quarterbacks is eclipsing 500 passing yards in a single game. Only 21 quarterbacks have ever accomplished this goal, which has only happened 24 times in NFL history. Only two quarterbacks have done it more than once, including Drew Brees, who did it twice, and Ben Roethlisberger, who has an NFL record of three such games.
Norm Van Brocklin holds one of the longest-standing single-game records in NFL history since he threw for 554 yards in a game during the 1951 season. While no other player has yet been able to break his record of more than 70 years, here are five active quarterbacks who have recorded a game that has exceeded 500 passing yards.
#1 - Joe Burrow

Joe Burrow is the most recent member to join the 500-yard club. He did so in a game against the Baltimore Ravens during Week 16 of the 2021 NFL season, helping the Cincinnati Bengals record a dominant 41-21 victory.
Burrow's impressive game included completing 37 of his 46 pass attempts for 525 yards and four touchdowns without throwing an interception. His passing yardage is the fourth-most ever in a single game.
#2 - Tom Brady

Tom Brady joined the 500-yard club more than a decade ago while still with the New England Patriots. He recorded 517 passing yards in a game against the Miami Dolphins during Week 1 of the 2011 NFL season. He also threw four touchdown passes.
It should come as no surprise that Brady is a member of the 500-yard club, considering his seemingly endless list of accomplishments. It's likely much more surprising that he has only recorded one such game so far during his legendary career.
