Trevor Siemian has been replaced by Brock Osweiler as the Broncos' starting quarterback.
On Wednesday, November 1, head coach Vance Joseph shared his decision with the team to take out captain
Trevor Siemian and put in
Brock Osweiler. It's something that I'm sure few fans were not expecting a couple of months ago. After three consecutive losses, it looks like the Broncos are trying to regain their momentum in order to play (and hopefully beat) the Philadelphia Eagles this Sunday.
But is this change going to be beneficial to the team? Vance Joseph thinks so. "It's my job to do what's best for the football team,"
he said. "Again, when you have lost three games in a row and you've had turnovers like we've had them ... that's not good."

Osweiler returned to the Broncos in early September after playing for both the Texans and Browns. Drafted in 2012, he left Denver after four years. His return, now as a starter, will be under watchful eye and it'll be interesting to see how he does on Sunday. Osweiler was brought in after Paxton Lynch suffered a right shoulder injury during a preseason game against the Packers.
What do you think of this swap in quarterbacks? Do you think Brock Osweiler will bring the Broncos back from this losing streak? Or is there another change in positions on the horizon? Let us know in the comments below.
