Broncos HC Vic Fangio believes the time he has spent on injured reserve has really helped rookie QB Drew Lock.
โI think the time off in some ways, although you never want it, helped him,โ Fangio said, via the Denver Post. โI think he learned a lot whereas, when he was going through it in the spring and training camp before he got hurt, it was piling up on him I think. Besides learning the new offense and being under center, which he had never done in college โ all those things were piling up on him and getting in the way of progressing the way youโd like to see him progress. I think, through his time off, heโs been able to solve some of those issues emotionally and mentally. I think heโs looked a little bit better the first two days, albeit [in] 8-10 snaps [and] half the scout-team snaps. Very limited sample.โ
