Meet Kendall Hinton, the unlikeliest NFL starting QB in decades

On Sunday afternoon, in Week 12 of the weirdest NFL season ever, the Denver Broncos will take to their home field without a quarterback. So they’ll reportedly turn to a practice squad wide receiver who has never played an NFL snap.

And who, one month ago, was working a normal-person job.

And who, when he last did anything resembling quarterbacking in 2018, completed two of eight passes for 2 yards – and one interception.

Kendall Hinton, center, shown during training camp, was a practice squad wide receiver for the Denver Broncos as of Saturday afternoon.
