It may be early in the season, but the Denver Broncos have looked sharp to begin their 2021 campaign.
It was a summer filled with questions for the franchise, especially surrounding the quarterback position. The Broncos opted to start Teddy Bridgewater over Drew Lock, a decision which culminated a summer of strangeness, including rumors of an Aaron Rodgers trade.
