Report: Broncos to start Paxton Lynch vs. Raiders

The Denver Broncos are expected to start Paxton Lynch at quarterback Sunday when they take on the Oakland Raiders, according to Dan Graziano of ESPN.

Lynch is being tasked with saving a struggling Broncos offense that's managing only 18.3 points per game and cost offensive coordinator Mike McCoy his job.

The 2016 first-round pick hasn't appeared in a game this season and was dealing with a shoulder injury. Lynch played sparingly in 2016, throwing for 497 yards and two touchdowns in three games.

Trevor Siemian and Brock Osweiler haven't been able to keep the Denver offense moving this season, so the Broncos will be turning to Lynch to help them break their six-game losing streak.
