On Wednesday, the issues that arose on Tuesday were already "ancient history."

But a new concern—potentially impacting the Broncos' first game—quickly floated to the surface.

The Denver Broncos' initial 53-man roster is officially set.

Here's how the roster shakes out and what George Paton and Vic Fangio had to say about it.

The Broncos have their starting quarterback. For the first preseason game, that is.

Here's how the reps will be split and why Drew Lock will get the first shot.

Teddy Bridgewater & Drew Lock had nearly identical practices on Wednesday.

Both started practice with 20-yard completions.

Both were efficient.

Both ended practice with red-zone INTs.

But there was one difference that tipped the scales.

The Broncos have a plan. They'll stick with it unless and until circumstances dictate otherwise.

Where are the Broncos in their evaluation process of Drew Lock?

Vic Fangio weighed in on Monday, a day after Lock posted a 149.5 passer rating.

The Broncos didn't have a gunslinger at quarterback on Sunday. Instead, they had the best quarterback in the NFL in Week 14 thanks in large part to Drew Lock taking the advice of No. 4 and No. 7.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — On Wednesday, Drew Lock reunited with his teammates at the UCHealth Training Center for the first time since being pulled from Saturday’s practice. The Denver Broncos’ starting quarterback, along with every other quarterback in the organization, was deemed ineligible to play Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints after the NFL ruled them to be high-risk close…...

The Broncos are considering disciplining their quarterbacks for not following COVID-19 protocols.

"Everything is on the table" when it comes to the potential discipline, according to Vic Fangio.

After losing 31-3, Vic Fangio was disappointed in his quarterbacks and himself for the situation the Broncos were in on Sunday.

Here's the event that led to Denver having to play an NFL game without a single quarterback.

Drew Lock took a positive step on Thursday to be able to play against the Dolphins.

He also made it clear he wants to play.

With a wait-and-see approach, Vic Fangio described what he needs to see from Drew Lock throughout the week for the 24-year old to play against the No. 5 scoring defense in the NFL.

Drew Lock doesn’t have any broken ribs, and for the him and the Broncos, that will elicit sighs of relief. But should he play this week?

Drew Lock played much better than the numbers indicate in his first action in nearly a month.

It's no secret Drew Lock is trending in the right direction to play on Sunday against the New England Patriots.

After his second straight full practice on Thursday, Vic Fangio added to that optimism.

Drew Lock had a full practice workload Wednesday. He threw with zip and vigor. When viewed from a distance, he showed no signs of discomfort.

The NFL gave the Denver Broncos 24 more hours to see if Drew Lock can be healthy enough to play in Week 5 after the league moved their game against the New England Patriots from Sunday to Monday.

The Broncos are taking that extra time and running with it.

The sight of No. 3 slinging the ball around at practice was unquestionably a positive sign for his potential availability against the New England Patriots.

But Lock being able to throw a football without pain will only be part of the equation on whether or not the Broncos will have their starting quarterback return after suffering a badly bruised shoulder in Week 2.

When practice opened Wednesday, camera lenses and the eyes of reporters zeroed in on Drew Lock. Meanwhile, Brett Rypien went about his work. It's all he can do.
