QB Scoreboard: Bo Nix, Zach Wilson and Jarrett Stidham shine on Day 11 of Denver Broncos Training Camp
The Denver Broncos came back from their second off day on Monday for their 11th practice of training camp. They’ll continue practicing through Friday ahead of their first preseason game in Indianapolis against the Colts on Sunday.
The Broncos figure to have a couple of padded practices—they didn’t wear pads on Monday—at some point during the week. I’d put my money on Tuesday and Wednesday, and maybe Thursday, but that’s just a guess.
What we know for sure is that the Broncos are continuing their install through Thursday before turning their sights to the Colts on Friday.
Quarterback Scoreboard
Jarrett Stidham: A-
Jarrett Stidham didn’t let the ball hit the ground on Monday
He started the day with a sharp seven-on-seven period. Michael Bandy caught a quick curl. David Sills caught a ball in the middle of the field for 13 yards. After not finding any options initially on 3rd & 5, Stidham rolled out and hit Hunter Kampmoyer on a scrambled drill.
Then, Stidham hit the big-gainer.
Sills came free up the sideline after Tremon Smith fell. Stidham hit Sills about 35 yards downfield and Sills walked into the end zone. The degree of difficulty was low, but credit to Stidham for finding the open receiver and taking advantage.
Stidham stayed sharp for the rest of practice. He found Troy Franklin on the sideline for 14 yards. He hit Greg Dulcich for a dozen yards.
He also found Michael Bandy, Blake Watson and Audric Estime on short passes. Estime had room to run for nearly 20 yards before contact.
Stidham’s efficiency is his calling card. On Monday, he rode that efficiency to one of his best practices of training camp.
