ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- For the fourth time this season the Denver Broncos will change starting quarterbacks after Paxton Lynch suffered a high ankle sprain in the third quarter of the 21-14 loss Sunday to the Oakland Raiders.

Lynch stayed down after a 1-yard completion to Emmanuel Sanders with just under five minutes remaining in the third quarter. He left the game and wore a walking boot on his right foot/ankle while headingt to the team's buses Sunday night,
