Drew Lock Fantasy

Denver Broncos president John Elway expects quarterback Drew Lock to open the 2020 season as the starter under center. "I dont see any other options," Elway said. Lock was on Injured Reserve for most of his rookie season with a finger injury, but he led the team to a 4-1 record to close the season in the final five games while going 100-for-156 (64.1 percent) for 1,020 yards, seven touchdowns and three interceptions. He must improve in his sophomore season and avoid making bone-headed decisions with the football, but Lock's arm strength will allow him to make any throw he needs to make. He'll likely have an up-and-down full season as the starter, but his presence under center will raise the upside of Courtland Sutton and Noah Fant.

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Drew Lock (thumb) will make his first NFL start in Week 13 against the Chargers, according to league sources. Lock should be a step up from Brandon Allen to close out the season, but he's raw and will be inconsistent in his first taste of NFL action. The Chargers are getting stud safeties Derwin James and Adrian Phillips back from Injured Reserve this week, so Lock will have his hands full and will be a QB2 to avoid this Sunday. Lock will, however, give more upside to Courtland Sutton and Noah Fant. The Bolts defense is a solid fantasy play in Week 13.

Denver Broncos head coach Vic Fangio said that rookie quarterback Drew Lock (thumb) will be activated from Injured Reserve before Sunday's game against the Chargers, but "we haven't decided yet" if Lock will start over Brandon Allen. All signs are pointing to Lock starting his first NFL game after he saw most of the first-team repetitions in practice this week. The second-rounder has a strong arm and will boost the upside of Courtland Sutton and Noah Fant, but he's raw and won't be without growing pains to close out the season. He won't be a recommended QB2 streamer in a tough matchup with the Bolts pass rush in Week 13.
