Joe Flacco is the Denver Broncos starting quarterback for 2019. There is no secret there. But what has yet to be decided is who will be “next man up” at the quarterback position. Broncos Country is going to know that decision after the final preseason matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
Vic Fangio stated that the player that will be backing up Joe Flacco during the regular season will be decided in Denver’s final preseason matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
If we were to look at the numbers, I would say Drew Lock has earned the chance to be the backup, but due to his sprained thumb, he might not be available right away.
