Broncos' Paxton Lynch earning more first-team reps

Denver Broncos quarterback Paxton Lynch is "getting more first-team reps" this week, 9News Denver's Mike Klis reports.

What It Means:

Lynch is getting "considerably more first-team reps" than he had through training camp and the offseason. Trevor Siemian has been leading the quarterback competition, but Lynch has a chance to unseat Siemian if he outplays him in the second preseason game.

numberFire's models expect Siemian to start under center for the Broncos this season, and we rank him 30th among fantasy quarterbacks entering the year. He's expected to complete 308.0-of-519.4 (59.3 percent) passes for 3,306.0 yards with 18.96 touchdowns and 14.3 interceptions in 2017.
