ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- In the on-field scenario many in the league feared the most with the COVID-19 pandemic, the Denver Broncos plan to play the New Orleans Saints on Sunday with no available quarterbacks for the game.

The Broncos' three eligible quarterbacks -- Drew Lock, Brett Rypien and Blake Bortles -- were each deemed to be a "high-risk" close contact to quarterback Jeff Driskel, and none of the three can be in uniform for Sunday's game, sources told ESPN.

1. My prediction remains: last team without covid wins the super bowl

IF any are left.

[KS Toronado]

18. Been thinking the same thing.

[Shermann]

2. Direct snap to running back! nt

3. This won't make much of a difference with the Broncos

7. :-)

4. Call Kaepernick, idiots.

6. They're presumably going to get them all back in about ten days.

The situation is very temporary. I'd prefer that Kaepernick get more than a one-week contract somewhere.

It's also highly unlikely they could sign him by tomorrow.

9. You never know. He might want to use it as an opportunity to show he's still got it.

[Mosby]

14. He doesn't know their offense.

It would be a disaster.

15. It's a moot point now. He'd have to do a quarantine period...

and it's too late.

17. Personally I think this season is more of a disaster than Kaep having a roster spot

The team is missing out on 3 QBs because of COVID.

Though people are right the longer this goes on the more rust Kaepernick develops but I have seen the Arizona Cardinals bring back Ryan Lindley for a playoff game! Ryan Lindley is the worst QB I have seen to get so much playing time.

11. He can't pass initial COVID screening by Sunday

I believe a new player has to test negative for 5 consecutive days before they're allowed in the team facility or at a game (transfers from other teams notwithstanding)

[brush]

12. You're right. I just heard that on ESPN.

5. They are their own worst enemy.

Can't feel sorry for them at all.

8. It appears they will start Royce Freeman at QB

And probably run some kind of option. There will be lots of running the ball.

10. Kendall Hinton a WR played QB for Wake Forest

He might be a better option for the "normal" offense. He had 253 college pass attempts over five years.

13. J.E.

Itchin to take the snaps...You know he is....

[Wawannabe]

16. No change!

With a quarterback!
