  • Tops 300 yards in second start

    Lock completed 22 of 27 passes for 309 yards, three touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 38-24 win at Houston. He added 15 yards on three rushing attempts.

    Analysis: Lock completed 16 of 19 passes for 235 yards and three touchdowns in the first half alone, as the visiting Broncos took a 31-3 lead into the locker room. Those three scores were a 14-yarder to Noah Fant, an eight-yarder to Jeff Heuerman and a three-yarder to Royce Freeman. The rookie second-rounder out of Missouri improves to 2-0 as an NFL starter, and he threw for more than twice as many yards in this one compared to last week. Maintaining that undefeated record won't be easy with a trip to…read more

  • Throws two TDs in debut

    Lock completed 18 of 28 pass attempts for 134 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception Sunday against the Chargers. He also carried three times for 15 yards in the 23-20 win.

    Analysis: Making his first NFL start, Lock struggled to the tune of 4.8 yards per attempt while completing just one pass longer than 11 yards. He encouragingly showed a strong rapport with top wideout Courtland Sutton, with whom he connected for a pair of touchdowns in the first quarter. Lock also used his mobility to gain a couple of first downs, and, aside from an interception in the third quarter, generally took care of the ball. After a somewhat successful debut, Lock should start again next Sunday…read more

  • Set to make first NFL start

    Lock will start Sunday against the Chargers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The rookie took first-string reps at practice throughout the week, so Denver will give him a look with Brandon Allen as his backup. Lock was activated from injured reserve this week after missing the first 12 weeks with a sprained thumb in his throwing hand.

  • Officially activated

    Lock (thumb) has officially been activated off injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers, but it remains unclear who will start under center between him and Brandon Allen, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Although no official starting quarterback has been announced, Lock is considered the favorite to get the opportunity. The rookie took first-string reps at practice throughout the week, which indicates the Broncos are going to see what they have in their second-round pick. Both Joe Flacco (neck) and Allen struggled to get the offense moving this year, so we may have an opportunity to see if Lock has the key to jump-start it.

  • Will be activated for Week 13

    The Broncos will "definitely" activate Lock (thumb) from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Chargers, but Denver has yet to decide whether the rookie or Brandon Allen will start at quarterback in Week 13, Kyle Newman of The Denver Post reports.

    Analysis: Newman notes that Denver is expected to choose a starter late Friday or at some point Saturday, but Lock looks like the overwhelming favorite to garner the nod. According to Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic, Lock took the first rep at every practice Wednesday through Friday, signaling that he's likely jumped ahead of Allen in the pecking order. Allen generally struggled to move the offense in his three starts following Joe Flacco's (neck) placement on injured reserve, completing just 46.4 percent…read more

  • Trending toward Week 13 start

    Lock (thumb) is expected to be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Per James Palmer of NFL Network, the Broncos increased Lock's reps to "about 75 percent of the offensive snaps in practice this week," an arrangement that points to Denver turning to the 2019 second-round pick over Brandon Allen in Week 13. Coach Vic Fangio may not name starter before Sunday in order to keep the Chargers guessing, but at this stage, it would be a surprise if Lock doesn't take over for Allen this weekend.

  • Takes initial first-team rep

    For the second straight day, Lock (thumb) took the initial first-team QB rep at practice Thursday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: While the signs are pointing to Lock being activated from IR to start Sunday's game against the Chargers, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com relays that as of Thursday coach Vic Fangio is not yet prepared to announce the Broncos' Week 13 starting QB. Per Ryan O'Halloran of The Denver Post, it's possible that the team might wait until Sunday to name a starter, but at this stage it looks like the 3-8 Broncos are on the verge of giving Lock -- the No. 42 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft -- a chance to run…read more

  • In mix for Week 13 start

    Coach Vic Fangio wouldn't commit to a starting quarterback between Lock (thumb) and Brandon Allen for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports. "As far as this week goes, all options are on the table," Fangio said Monday. "We'll make that decision in the next few days."

    Analysis: The Broncos don't need to activate Lock from injured reserve until next Tuesday, Dec. 3, but Fangio indicated he may make the call before week's end. Fangio also told Jhabvala that "practice time ... just all that lost time and preparation" are the things holding him back from making the decision. Having said that, Fangio may be willing to expedite Lock's return to the 53-man roster after Allen completed just 10 of 25 passes for 82 yards and one interception during a Week 12 loss at Buffalo.

  • Could be activated Week 13

    Coach Vic Fangio said Friday that it's possible Lock (thumb) could be activated from injured reserve Week 13, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

    Analysis: Fangio said Lock has been "doing good when you factor in he hasn't done anything since August." Since being designated for return from IR on Nov. 12, Lock has worked with the scout team. The Broncos will have until Week 14 against the Texans to make a decision on the rookie second-round pick, who stands to be the backup to starting signal-caller Brandon Allen in the event that he does join the 53-man roster.

  • 'Unlikely' for Week 12 activation

    Coach Vic Fangio said it's "unlikely but possible" Lock (thumb) is activated from injured reserve in advance of Sunday's game at Buffalo, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: In the event Lock does elevate to the 53-man roster, he'll be the backup to current starting quarterback Brandon Allen. Lock is expected to continue working with the scout team this week, much like he's done since he was designated for return from IR last Tuesday. The Broncos have two weeks remaining to make a decision on Lock, but in the meantime Brett Rypien will serve as the team's No. 2 QB.

  • Designated to return

    Lock (thumb) returned to practice Tuesday, meaning he's one of the Broncos' two players designated to return from IR, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: This is Lock's first time on the practice field since Aug. 19, as he's rehabbed a sprained thumb in his throwing hand. The Broncos are currently deploying Brandon Allen under center with Joe Flacco (neck) on IR, and they have until Week 14 against the Texans to activate Lock. Coach Vic Fangio has already named Allen the starter for this Sunday's matchup against the Vikings, but Lock -- a rookie second-round pick -- could serve as his backup if he's activated.

  • In line to practice Tuesday

    Lock (thumb) is expected to return to practice Tuesday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Assuming he does, Lock will be one of the Broncos' two players designated to return from injured reserve. He's nearly three months removed from spraining the thumb on his throwing hand, and if he takes the field Tuesday, the team will need to make a decision on activation to the 53-man roster by Week 14 at Houston. With Joe Flacco (neck) on IR as well, the Broncos are rolling with Brandon Allen at quarterback for now. Lock, a rookie second-rounder, will be putting himself in position to start…read more

  • Targeting Week 11 return

    General manager John Elway said Wednesday that Lock (thumb) is expected to resume practicing with the Broncos in Week 11, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Elway noted that while Lock isn't physically ready yet, the rookie signal-caller received medical clearance for his sprained right thumb "about two weeks ago," according to Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com. Whenever Lock does resume practicing, the Broncos will face a 21-day window to evaluate him for activation to the 53-man roster. With Joe Flacco (neck) facing a 5-to-6-week absence and Brandon Allen currently set to helm Denver's offense, Lock could be in the mix to start when fully healthy.

  • Already medically cleared

    Lock's right thumb received medical clearance "about two weeks" ago, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: Since landing on IR with a sprained thumb during the preseason, Lock has been in recovery mode and hasn't gotten clearance to return to practice, the latter of which would open a 21-day evaluation period before his activation to the 53-man roster. With Joe Flacco tending to a potentially season-ending neck injury, the Broncos have turned to Brandon Allen to direct the offense, but Lock eventually may join the mix once he returns to the field. It's unclear if that'll be this week or later on…read more

  • May be backup option for Week 9

    Coach Vic Fangio said Monday that Lock's sprained right thumb has healed, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports. Fangio wouldn't disclose whether Lock would resume practicing this week.

    Analysis: Among their 10 players on injured reserve, the Broncos are considering multiple candidates for their two "designated-to-return" spots. GM John Elway already has suggested that one of those spots will be reserved for receiver Tim Patrick (hand), so the team may want to evaluate Lock for a little longer before deciding whether to commit the other spot to him. Lock's potential return from IR took on greater import Monday, when Fangio revealed that top quarterback Joe Flacco (neck) was dealing with…read more

  • Not ready to practice

    President John Elway said Lock (thumb) "is not ready to go right now" and there's a chance he remains on injured reserve, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic report.

    Analysis: Lock was eligible to resume practicing this week and was present on the practice field, but he remained a non-participant. Elway continues to stress wanting to avoid rushing back the rookie quarterback before he's ready, which may also have to do with the Broncos' sub-par situation on offense in addition to the thumb sprain that put him on IR. Regardless, it doesn't appear as though Lock's return to the practice field will occur in the immediate future.

  • Not yet practicing

    Lock (thumb) has been present at practice, but as a non-participant, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: This contradicts reports from last week that Lock was set to return to practice. It is unclear if he has suffered a setback or if the team is just continuing to exercise caution with its rookie second-round pick. He has been on IR since the season kicked off and will be eligible to be officially activated as early as Week 9. His status will need to be monitored going forward.

    Analysis: Lock has been on injured reserve since the start of the regular season after suffering a severe thumb sprain on his throwing hand in the preseason, but he's closing in on a potential return. The rookie second-round pick can be officially activated as early as Week 9, but there should be a better idea of a potential return date once he actual retakes the practice field.

  • Ahead of schedule in recovery

    Lock (thumb) has been throwing for the past two weeks and is "ahead of schedule" in his rehab program, Kyle Newman of The Denver Post reports.

    Analysis: After being placed on injured reserve following the conclusion of the preseason, Lock is eligible to begin practicing this week. Even if he does get in some on-field reps with the rest of the team, Lock's real test in practice won't come until Week 8, as the Broncos will face a quick turnaround for a Thursday night matchup with the Chiefs in Week 7. The Broncos can bring Lock back from IR as early as Week 9, but there's no guarantee the rookie will see any meaningful action this season,…read more

  • Resumes throwing

    Lock said Friday that he's progressing well in his recovery from a severe right thumb sprain and is healing on schedule, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

    Analysis: Lock acknowledged that he has resumed "throwing a little bit" -- the first meaningful step in an eventual return to practice. Since the Broncos placed him on injured reserve at the conclusion of the preseason, Lock isn't eligible to start practicing with the team until Week 7 and can't be activated from IR until Week 9.

  • To resume throwing soon

    Lock (thumb) is expected to begin throwing again next week, Ryan Koenigsberg of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Lock will be eligible to practice in Week 6 and -- if the team elects to have him back -- could return to the active roster in Week 8. If the rookie second-round pick returns to the roster, he would very likely steal the backup job from Brandon Allen and could even see some snaps as the starter depending on how the team and Joe Flacco are playing at that point.

  • Ditches hard cast

    Lock (thumb) has replaced his hard cast with a removable brace, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Since Lock is on injured reserve, he still won't be able to return to the lineup until Week 8. It appears Lock is on the right track if the Broncos choose to bring him back, but that's still not guaranteed. They have backup Brandon Allen, who has zero career passing attempts in three years, on the roster, and it also depends on how Joe Flacco is playing at the time. If Flacco and the Broncos are struggling, however, the team may want to try out their rookie second-round pick under center.

  • Encounters new backup competition

    Former Rams quarterback Brandon Allen will serve as Denver's No. 2 quarterback with Lock (thumb) being placed on injured reserve, Troy Renck of ABC 7 Denver reports.

    Analysis: It is worth noting that Allen, a third-year veteran, and Lock have exactly the same number of regular-season passes on their resumes -- zero. General manager John Elway and head coach Vic Fangio have both seemed open to keeping Lock on injured reserve the entire season, but that was before it was known who would come in as the No. 2. Though there is plenty of football to be played -- and injuries to be incurred -- before the Broncos decide who they will reactivate, bringing Lock back midway…read more

  • Will head to IR

    General manager John Elway told reporters that Lock (thumb) will head to injured reserve, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Once Kevin Hogan and Brett Rypien were released, the initial impression was that Lock was close enough to returning to be kept on the 53-man roster. Elway clarified on Saturday that the Broncos simply needed the roster spots to hold onto other players. Elway said that Lock is about six to eight weeks away, making injured reserve the logical move. Lock figures to be activated once he's ready so that he can practice, but Elway did not guarantee that -- especially given the other valuable players…read more

  • May land on IR

    Lock (thumb) may open the season on injured reserve, ESPN.com's Jeff Legwold reports.

    Analysis: Dealing with a severe thumb sprain on his throwing hand, Lock will miss the rest of the preseason and isn't expected to be ready for Week 1. He'll be ineligible for the entire season if the Broncos place him on IR before final roster cuts, while he can return for the second half of the campaign if he's kept on the initial 53-man roster. Either way, Kevin Hogan is in line to open the regular season as Joe Flacco's backup.

    Lock (thumb) will be sidelined for the start of the regular season, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: It was already reported that Lock had suffered a thumb sprain and was going to miss some time, but now Lock is on track to be out for the start of his rookie season. This isn't too surprising given that it is a thumb sprain on Lock's throwing hand and now, Kevin Hogan is in line to secure the backup quarterback job behind Joe Flacco for the start of the regular season.

  • Escapes with thumb sprain

    Lock said he suffered "just a little sprain" on his right thumb, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Lock's position makes the injury a much bigger deal than it would be for other players, but he at least seems to have avoided a long-term issue after X-rays on his right hand came back negative. Missed time in practice and/or the final two weeks of the preseason could help Kevin Hogan secure the No. 2 spot at quarterback -- something that already was being discussed the past few weeks. Lock has produced just 254 yards on 51 pass attempts (5.0 YPA) this preseason, but Hogan (3.5 YPA) somehow has…read more

    Lock (hand) underwent X-rays on his right hand and they have come back negative, Mike Klis of 9News.com reports.

    Analysis: This is good news for the rookie quarterback, who exited Monday's contest against the 49ers early in the third quarter. Still, there's a good chance the Broncos opt to give Lock some extra time off to recover with a little under three weeks left until the regular season kicks off. Should Lock miss time, look for Kevin Hogan and Brett Rypien to absorb some extra reps.

    Lock is questionable to return to Monday's preseason game against the 49ers due to a hand injury, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Lock suffered the injury early in the third quarter when he appeared to fall on his left hand while scrambling to avoid pressure. The severity of the rookie second-rounder's injury remains unknown at this time, but the signal-caller reportedly could continue taking snaps into the fourth quarter if he's cleared to return.

  • Shows improvement in Seattle

    Lock completed 17 of 28 passes for 180 yards, a touchdown and an interception during Thursday's 22-14 preseason loss to Seattle. He added 11 yards on three carries. After the game, head coach Vic Fangio said that Lock "threw it pretty damn good," Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Lock looked less jittery than his preseason opener and delivered a couple of highlights, including a third-down conversion that was in Troy Fumagalli's hands before he even turned out of his route, and a threaded two-point conversion to Juwann Winfree. The rookie second-rounder still struggled under pressure, particularly on a play in which he drifted into the end zone and was sacked for a safety, but Fangio saw progress.

  • Serviceable in HOF Game win

    Lock completed seven of 11 pass attempts for 34 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in the Broncos' 14-10 preseason win over the Falcons on Thursday. He also rushed once for six yards.

    Analysis: The rookie entered the contest with 13:49 left in the second quarter and misfired on his first three attempts before hitting Nick Williams for his first completion. Lock ended up connecting on six of his subsequent seven passes as well, but he averaged a meager 3.1 yards per attempt. Lock also took two sacks in what was a middling performance overall, but the second-round pick at least got plenty of work in.

    Lock will back up Kevin Hogan on Thursday in the preseason opener against Atlanta, Zac Stevens of BSN Denver reports.

    Analysis: Lock has reportedly had some of the Broncos quarterbacks' most dazzling highs and head-scratching lows, but is still listed as Denver's No. 3 quarterback. Head coach Vic Fangio has cautioned that, outside the first team, the depth chart is not necessarily indicative of standing, so it's unclear whether Lock has taken a step back in his development, or if the coaching staff is simply making him earn the backup job over the veteran Hogan. The picture will become clearer Thursday as both…read more

  • Is clear "1B" quarterback

    Despite comments by head coach Vic Fangio tempering expectations, Lock has clearly been the best passer behind Joe Flacco to start training camp, Benjamin Allbright of KOA News Radio reports.

    Analysis: Allbright and others have expounded that, while Lock has made some bone-headed decisions in practice, he has also made many of the offense's highlight throws and shown improvement along the way. Fangio described Lock as more of a hard thrower than a pitcher at this juncture, but reports from the practice field show that Lock is about where many expected him to be. Whether that is more an indictment on the Broncos' depth chart than anything else -- and whether Lock can step up his play in the…read more

  • Viewed as developmental project

    Coach Vic Fangio doesn't believe Lock is an NFL-ready quarterback, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports. "[Lock]'s college offense had no carryover to pro offenses," Fangio said Friday. "He was under duress a lot. I don't think he's as far along being an NFL-ready QB as he could have been. He's not a QB yet. He's a hard-throwing pitcher who doesn't know how to pitch yet.''

    Analysis: Fangio joins general manager John Elway in making it a point to shut down any speculation about a QB competition between Lock and Joe Flacco. The rookie will have time to develop on the bench, following a college career with a 56.9 completion percentage as a four-year starter under three different offensive coordinators at Missouri. The Broncos are betting that Lock's arm strength and athleticism ultimately outweigh concerns regarding his accuracy and pocket presence. He signed his rookie…read more

    Analysis: The Broncos and Lock were at an impasse as recently as Tuesday, but the two sides agreed to workout bonuses in 2021 and 2022, according to Jhabvala, getting the signal-caller in the house for the start of training camp. He'll kick off his career behind veteran Joe Flacco on the depth chart, with his second-round status giving Lock a good shot to make his presence felt early as a professional.

  • Still negotiating contract

    Lock hasn't signed a contract and may not report for the start of training camp, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

    Analysis: Lock reportedly wants a quarterback premium that gives him stronger-than-usual guarantees for his draft slot (42nd overall). His negotiations also could impact offensive lineman Dalton Risner, whom the Broncos selected one pick before Lock at No. 41 overall. With Joe Flacco slated for the Week 1 start under center, the team may be worried about Risner's availability for training camp more so than Lock's.
