For the first time in what's felt like a long time, the Broncos were handed encouraging news on the injury front Tuesday.
Despite an overcast day on Thursday at the UCHealth Training Center, the Denver Broncos’ stars shined through.
Will Greg Dulcich be the Broncos' Week 1 starting tight end?
Or will Albert Okwuegbunam, Eric Tomlinson or even Eric Saubert take that role?
On a postcard-perfect autumn Sunday at Empower Field at Mile High, it rained.
Boos, that is.
Could the Broncos' solution for the next few weeks without Jerry Jeudy be making more use of two- and three-tight end formations?
By Tuesday afternoon, George Paton and Vic Fangio must narrow down the Broncos' roster from 80 players to the final 53.
Here's who is projected to make the final roster.
With a decision on the Broncos' starting QB looming, although Vic Fangio did mention that both Teddy Bridgewater and Drew Lock have played well, it's hard to ignore the head coach's heaping praise for one QB after Saturday night's win.
Could Fangio make a decision between the two quarterbacks in the coming days? “We might,” he said after the Broncos’ 30-3 romp over the Seahawks at Lumen Field. “I want to take a look at the tape some more.”
Drew Lock was electric to start Sunday's scrimmage.
Not only did he have the pass of training camp, he commanded two touchdown drives early.
Lock needed a strong day on Sunday. He delivered.
The past few practices, Drew Lock’s lost the “gunslinger” to his game, while Teddy Bridgewater has tried to shake being “Mr. Checkdown.”
Both of those were very clear during Friday’s practice.
In the first two days of camp, Bridgwater only had one incompletion each day.
On Friday, it was Drew Lock who only saw the ball hit the ground once.
The first day of training camp was about the stars. Von Miller and Jerry Jeudy shined on Wednesday to open camp.
Thursday, however, was about the players that don't get the attention and praise they deserve.
