Brett Rypien is going to be asked to lead the Broncos to victory in prime time on a short week.
The Denver Broncos need to dig themselves out of an 0-3 hole. They have a road game against the hapless New York Jets on Thursday to get on the board in the win column, and they are asking Brett Rypien to lead the way.
Multiple reports indicate that Rypien, a 2019 undrafted free agent out of Boise State who has spent the majority of his first two NFL seasons on the Denver Broncos’ practice squad, will start for the team against Sam Darnold and the Jets.
