Trevor Siemian benched by Broncos
Denver Broncos quarterback Trevor Siemian has been demoted to backup duties, head coach Vance Joseph announced.
What It Means:
Brock Osweiler will make his first start of the season for the Broncos in Week 9 against the Philadelphia Eagles. After a hot two-game start, Siemian completely bottomed out over Denver's next five games, sealing his fate with an atrocious, 3-interception performance on Monday Night Football in Week 8. The 2015 seventh-round pick likely doesn't have much of a future as a starter in the NFL.
Siemian averaged 14.8 FanDuel points per game this season while completing 152-of-247 passes for 1,669 yards with 9 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. Among the 29 quarterbacks with at least 200 dropbacks, his -0.08 Passing Net Expected Points per dropback rank fourth-worst.
