Broncos Activate QBs Drew Lock, Brett Rypien & Blake Bortles From COVID-19 List

The Denver Broncos officially activated QBs Drew Lock, Brett Rypien and Blake Bortles from the COVID-19 list on Tuesday, according to Ryan O’Halloran. 

All three quarterbacks were placed on the list, even though they never tested positive for COVID-19. They were instead treated as high-rick, close contacts to Jeff Driskell, who did test positive last week. 

Lock, 24, is a former second-round pick of the Broncos back in 2019. He’s currently in the second year of his four-year, $7,010,820 rookie contract including a $3,118,776 signing bonus. 

In 2020, Lock has appeared in seven games for the Broncos and completed 55 percent of his pass attempts for 1,497 yards, seven touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He’s added 24 carries for 88 yards.
