I was going to give it to you. Tarkenton was sacked, unofficially, 570 times. Official sack statistics didn't begin until 1982. As it happens, though, there is a current player with one more sack. He passed Brady on the list this past year.
Currently, he has been sacked 571 times, but in only 248 games. Skipping Tarkenton, the next is Tom Brady with 565 sacks, but in 335 games. Next on the list is also a current player, Russel Wilson, with 560 sacks in 199 games. Assuming he has another year in him, he could pass Rodgers.

Don't forget about me Raf, I'm so petty too. From "Wildflowers" to "The Last DJ".

I'll just jump in, here. I doubt Raf will disapprove.
Which NFL quarterback has been sacked the most times?

Joe Montana?

Actually, Montana was pretty well protected. He's number 55 on the list, with slightly over half the sacks (313) of the current leader (571).
You have the right idea, though. Obviously, the answer has to be a great QB, just to have the longevity to earn this "honor."

You've dropped a big clue George if he's a current player. Aaron Rodgers?
