Lynch will receive the second-string reps at Wednesday's practice as the Broncos evaluate the progress he's made in his recovery from a right shoulder injury, Mike Klis of 9 News Denver reports.

While he hasn't been listed on the injury report at any point in November, Lynch has been limited to third-string duties since he resumed practicing in late October. With the team sinking and Brock Osweiler failing to impress through two starts, Lynch likely will replace his veteran teammate as starter before the end of the season. The Broncos seem to be gradually increasing Lynch's practice workload, perhaps eyeing Week 12 or 13 for his promotion to the top spot on the depth chart.
