Denver Broncos: Chad Kelly takes Paxton Lynch’s spot

In an expected move, the Denver Broncos moved Chad Kelly up the depth chart behind Case Keenum.

Kelly played in the second half of the Minnesota Vikings preseason game. His play won over the crowd instantly as they chanted his last name: “Kelly, Kelly, Kelly!”

Kelly’s play at quarterback was second-best in the game behind Kirk Cousins who didn’t play hardly at all in the first quarter. The two other quarterbacks of the Broncos decided to not challenge at all for that distinction.

Kelly made that a priority early and often.

His play was dazzling more often than not.
