Broncos' Drew Lock: Trending toward Week 17 start
Lock will likely remain Denver's starting quarterback Sunday's game against the Chargers with Teddy Bridgewater not expected to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol this week, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Bridgewater required a trip to the hospital after being carted off the field in the Broncos' Dec. 19 loss to the Bengals. Though he was discharged a day later and was diagnosed with no injuries beyond the concussion, Bridgewater wasn't able to practice in any capacity last week before being ruled out ahead of last Sunday's 17-13 loss to the Raiders. Bridgewater remains in the protocol as of Wednesday and is considered unlikely to take any dramatic steps forward in the next few days, setting up Lock for a second consecutive start. Lock completed 15 of 22 passes for 153 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions last week, as Denver took just 40 snaps on offense while Las Vegas (36:37) dominated the time of possession.
