The Denver Broncos benched quarterback Brock Osweiler on Tuesday in favor of Paxton Lynch for their Week 12 game against the Oakland Raiders at Oakland Coliseum.
Dan Graziano of ESPN passed along word of the QB change.
Osweiler started his NFL career as a second-round selection of the Broncos in the 2012 draft and spent his first four years with the franchise. He returned in early September after the Cleveland Browns released him, and he took back the reins of the offense in Week 9.
