This shouldn’t be surprising to anyone, but Russell Wilson is the Broncos’ starting quarterback. The team invested far too much draft capital and money on Wilson to have him ride the bench.
It should be said, however, that Wilson is working with a much shorter leash under the new head honcho in town, Sean Payton. The Broncos also signed Jarrett Stidham in free agency, and it is expected that he will back up Wilson. Should Wilson crash and burn again, Stidham will likely slide into that starting role.
Outside of Wilson and Stidham, will the Broncos carry a third quarterback throughout the season?
