Denver Broncos head coach Vic Fangio told reporters that rookie quarterback Drew Lock may begin the 2019 season on injured reserve due to a thumb injury.
"Obviously because it's his throwing hand and a thumb, that's a pretty serious injury for a quarterback,'' Fangio said per Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com. "It will be some time before we know exactly where he's at and how much time he would miss.''
"Yeah, it could be if we don't think he can play for a while," Fangio continued when asked about the potential of Lock landing on injured reserve.
