The Denver Broncos have been in the market for a quarterback, but most folks thought it would be filled in the NFL draft. While it still may be the case, the team has acquired Teddy Bridgewater from the Carolina Panthers. The deal is team-friendly for Denver, as the Panthers get a sixth-round pick and will pay Bridgewater $7 million next season. Denver will ante up $3 million in addition to the late-round draft pick in the trade.
The move all but assures that Drew Lock is no longer a guarantee to be the Broncos’ No.
