Drew Lock, QB

Drew Lock won his first two games as the starting quarterback of the Denver Broncos and Broncos Country can’t wait for more.

In his first career game, against the Los Angeles Chargers, Lock completed 64.3 percent of his passes for 134 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. In his second game—against the Houston Texans, he completed 81.5 percent for 309 yards, three touchdowns and one interception.

There were mistakes, like all rookies make, but the wait for Lock to become the starting quarterback of the Denver Broncos was well worth it so far.

Lock was not supposed to even see the field in 2019, but after the injury (*cough* benching? *cough*) of Joe Flacco, it was only really a matter of time.

In his third game as starter, Lock goes up against the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead. It is one of the toughest places to play so this will be a huge test for him, as well as the other rookies (including offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello).

However, the more he plays, the more he gets his feet wet, the easier things should become. The sky’s the limit for Drew Lock. To infinity and beyond!
