Rough start for the Broncos. #4Broncos
Some of the troubles included a drop of a catch on third down by Royce Freeman and a false start penalty called on new Broncos offensive lineman Jared Veldheer.
Two plays for the offense and already a penalty. False start on Veldheer. Vance Joseph will not like that. #4Broncos

New quarterback Case Keenum was taken out of the game after the first two possessions and was replaced by backup quarterback Paxton Lynch. Keenum went 1 for 4 for 5 yards in the little action he saw.
So the Broncos 1st team offense goes:
