Quarterback Kyle Sloter leads the Denver Broncos’ top players to watch against the Arizona Cardinals in preseason week four…

The Denver Broncos are seeking their fourth undefeated preseason in team history with a win against the Arizona Cardinals, and they have the players to help get them there.

Let’s take a look at five players to keep an eye on in this game (though there are many) that could be making highlight reel plays and for some, a final roster push…

1  Kyle Sloter, QB

Kyle Sloter will trot onto the field Thursday night as the Denver Broncos’ starting quarterback. It could perhaps be the first and last time that ever happens, so we’re going to enjoy it.

More than just with a clean pocket, Sloter has been effective throughout the preseason, and has engineered some really clutch drives for the Broncos’ offense. He has the highest quarterback rating among qualifying quarterbacks in preseason play so far, and honestly he’s looked much better than even Paxton Lynch.

None of this has guaranteed Sloter a roster spot, unfortunately, but he can make that a near impossible decision for the Broncos with a big game on Thursday night against the Cardinals.
