Bridgewater completed nine of 11 passes for 105 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions in the Broncos' 30-3 preseason win over the Seahawks on Saturday night. He also rushed once for two yards.

As expected, Bridgewater received the starting nod Saturday after Drew Lock, with whom he's competing for the starting job, was afforded that opportunity in Denver's exhibition opener against the Vikings. Bridgewater made an immediate impact by helming a seven-play, 45-yard drive on the Broncos' first possession and capping it off with a two-yard touchdown pass to KJ Hamler. The veteran signal-caller subsequently led his squad on a marathon 16-play, 87-yard march that also resulted in six points, although that ended on a recovery of running back Javonte Williams' fumble in the end zone. That possession would be Bridgewater's final one of the night, and Lock was less impressive while playing with mostly the second-unit offense around him, taking two sacks and fumbling twice but losing neither. It remains to be seen whether head coach Vic Fangio will risk the health of either player in next Saturday's preseason finale against the Rams or if he'll simply rely on what he's seen in the first pair of exhibitions and camp practices to arrive on a decision on the team's Week 1 starter.
