John Elway, Broncos knew Case Keenum's mettle best
With members of their staff having seen Keenum first-hand with the Texans, the Broncos had -- pardon the pun -- 'keen' insight into their new QB.
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- No one evaluating free-agent quarterbacks the last two months had the insight into Case Keenum that the Broncos did.
That went beyond President of Football Operations/General Manager John Elway. It included Senior Personnel Advisor Gary Kubiak, who was in Houston as head coach when the Texans signed Keenum as a college free agent in 2012.
"He has a great deal of knowledge and is a very good evaluator, but also Gary’s relationship with Case and knowing Case, that was a big feather in Case’s cap," Elway said.
