Broncos’ backups no match for Buffalo in 42-15 preseason loss

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Good thing the Broncos’ backups don’t have to play the Buffalo Bills’ backups this season.

The Bills scored touchdowns on their first six possessions Saturday, all but one with starting quarterback Josh Allen not on the field, en route to a commanding 42-15 preseason win over the Broncos.

The Broncos close the preseason next Saturday at home against Minnesota.

Between now and then, general manager George Paton and coach Nathaniel Hackett have to figure out if they have the right players in the right spots on the depth chart. The performance against the Bills was that messy.
