Broncos’ offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello recalled a moment in the game against the Chargers on Sunday after Ron Leary went out for a concussion
He realized that third-year man Garett Bolles was the most senior player on offense taking the field.
“We’ve got rookies everywhere, including the quarterback,” Scangarello said. “It’s just what we are. The cool thing about it is that we’ve got a great foundation, they’re going to get better and better the longer we do this together.”
Part of the way Scangarello helps his rookie QB taking his second-ever NFL start in Week 14 of the regular season is by letting him do what is most comfortable - from running plays he likes better to using a wristband for play calling (the second of which Dalton Risner, Lock’s roommate in camp, loves to give him a hard time about).
