A ‘sophomore jinx’ isn’t to blame for Trevor Siemian’s struggles

Related Topics: Jinx, Josh McCown

Yesterday, Denver Broncos PR man/9NEWS Denver’s Mike Klis tried to spin Siemian’s struggles into a positive by just calling it a “sophomore jinx.”

He used Josh McCown and Case Keenum as (bad) examples for this. Unfortunately for Klis, the spin he tried doing here didn’t work very well.

First off, using players like Case Keenum and Josh McCown as examples is grasping at straws. Keenum has been nothing but a backup option and Josh McCown has been the ultimate journeymen quarterback. He has played for eight different teams and has never started more than 10 games in a season three times during his career.
