Trevor Siemian To Start For Broncos

The Broncos have announced that Trevor Siemian will be their starting quarterback to open the 2016 season. Siemian cemented his status asTrevor Siemian (vertical) the Broncos‘ starting quarterback after turning in a solid performance during Saturday night’s preseason victory over the Rams.

Siemian offers no real NFL experience, but he impressed Broncos brass this offseason with his arm and overall poise. Mark Sanchez was widely expected to come away as the team’s starter this offseason, but he quickly fell behind the 2015 seventh-round pick. Now, one has to wonder if Sanchez will be on the Broncos’ roster to start the season. The Broncos haven’t asked Sanchez to take a pay cut yet, but that could be coming soon.

Rookie Paxton Lynch has received rave reviews for his raw talent in practices this offseason, but the team believes that he will need some more seasoning before being thrown into the NFL fire.
