Colorado Buffaloes backup quarterback battle continues

There’s no question Steven Montez is the man atop the depth chart at quarterback for the Colorado Buffaloes.

During a scrimmage at Folsom Field on Saturday, Montez played with poise and confidence as he led the offense, proving why he’s going into his second year as the starter.

The tight battle for No. 2 continues, however, between sophomore Sam Noyer and redshirt freshman Tyler Lytle.

“Sam is probably a little ahead of Tyler right now in what we’re doing, but both of them are talented and make good plays and have the ability to throw the ball,” quarterbacks coach Kurt Roper said this past week.
