Broncos Planning To Have QB Trevor Siemian Available For Week 5, Considered Day-To-Day

Update:

Broncos HC Gary Kubiak mentioned during an interview with Denver Sports 760 Monday morning that QB Trevor Siemian is “day-to-day” with the left shoulder injury. However, Kubiak did say that they’re planning as though Siemian will be available on Sunday.

Our plans moving forward are for Trevor to be there Sunday (against the Falcons) and be ready to go, but he’s day to day,” Kubiak said, via DenverBroncos.com.

Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reports that it would not be surprising to see Broncos QB Trevor Siemian miss “a game, maybe two” after he sustained an AC joint sprain to his left (non-throwing) shoulder.

Rookie Paxton Lynch would obviously be in line to start if Siemian is unable to play in Week 5.

Broncos QB Trevor Siemian was taken to the locker room on a cart during Sunday’s game against the Buccaneers and replaced by first-round pick Paxton Lynch.

The Broncos announced that Siemian is questionable to return with a left shoulder (non-throwing arm).

Based on video, David Chao would be surprised if Siemian sustained a clavicle fracture, and instead considers it more likely that he has a shoulder separation (AC joint).

Siemian, 24, was taken in the seventh round of last year’s draft. He’s currently int he second year of his four-year, $2.33 million contract and set to make a base salary of $525,000 for the 2016 season.

Entering today’s game, Siemian had thrown for 756 yards while completing 67 percent of his passes to go along with five touchdowns and three interceptions. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 9 quarterback out of 34 qualifying players

We’ll have more regarding Siemian’s injury as the news is available.
