Broncos' Paxton Lynch (shoulder) expected to miss 2-4 games

Denver Broncos quarterback Paxton Lych is expected to miss 2-to-4 games with a sprain of his right shoulder.

What It Means:

Lynch was diagnosed a few days ago, but it's now official that the second-year quarterback will miss regular-season time with the injury. As he sits out, Kyle Sloter, an undrafted free agent, will back up named starter Trevor Siemian.

Seeing as Lynch lost the battle for the Broncos' starting job, he's not relevant for fantasy purposes this season. We project him for 249 pass yards, 1.7 touchdowns and 1.1 interceptions on 40.2 pass attempts in his backup role.
