Siemian will start Saturday's preseason game against the Rams, even though he's dealing with some lingering soreness in his throwing shoulder, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports.
Siemian got a bit nicked up in Denver's second preseason game while trying to make a tackle after an interception. It won't prevent him from getting a second straight start, but head coach Gary Kubiak did make it clear that the quarterback battle is far from decided. Siemian, Mark Sanchez and Paxton Lynch will split playing time equally in Saturday's game, and Kubiak will then name a starter next week. Sanchez was widely viewed as the favorite before training camp, but it now appears the battle will go down to the wire, with Saturday's game perhaps serving as the determining factor.
