Chad Kelly’s exit promotes Kevin Hogan to Broncos’ backup quarterback

Wide receiver River Cracraft recalls the feeling of being on the opposite sideline of quarterback Kevin Hogan. Cracraft’s Washington State team played Hogan’s Stanford squad three times. The Cardinal prevailed in every meeting.

“The kid just wins,” Cracraft said.

True. Among the all-time great quarterbacks to wear a Stanford uniform — Jim Plunkett, John Elway and Andrew Luck included — none won more games (36) or accounted for more total offense (10,634 yards).

Hogan and Cracraft are now Denver Broncos teammates, often spotted together after practice gaining route reps hard to come by deep down the depth chart.
