Broncos Backup QB Battle Heats Up | Denver Broncos News

The Broncos are rethinking their backup QB plan as Jarrett Stidham’s future hangs in the balance. Despite stepping in last season when Bo Nix went down, his shaky performance in the AFC Championship blizzard—and a recent preseason outing—has raised doubts. With an $8M cap hit and no clear proof he’s the answer, Stidham’s job is now on the line. Sam Ehlinger, while showing promise in practice, may not be the solution either. Enter Zach Wilson—the former Bronco who knows the offense, fits with the staff, and comes at a fraction of the cost ($4M). His past familiarity and potential make him a tempting option to secure a reliable backup spot. Could the team revisit a trade they made before? The backup QB race just got serious.
