    Broncos LT Garett Bolles confident in all 3 of team's quarterbacks

    The Denver Broncos have an ongoing three-way quarterback competition for the starting job between Jarrett Stidham, Bo Nix and Zach Wilson.

    Broncos coach Sean Payton will make the final call later this summer. In the meantime, offensive teammates will practice with all three QBs on a rotating basis. Garett Bolles, Denver’s left tackle, will be ready to protect whoever wins the starting job.

    “They all can play, or they wouldn’t be here,” Bolles said last week. “That’s how Coach Payton rolls. He’s not going to bring somebody in here that [he] doesn’t think that he can play, and to run his scheme and to run his offense. He’s had a great quarterback in Drew Brees, and he has a certain way of doing things.

    “He knows that all three of these quarterbacks can be special for us with ‘Stiddy’ and Zach and Bo. All those guys I love dearly. It’s just my job to keep their jersey fresh. It doesn’t matter who’s back there. As a left tackle, you have to sustain that left side and protect their blind side so that they can feel comfortable back there to deliver the ball to our playmakers.”

    Wilson has seemingly already fallen behind Stidham and Nix in the competition, so it might be a two-horse race at this point. The QB battle will heat up when preseason begins later this month. The Broncos will kick off preseason on the road against the Indianapolis Colts on Aug. 11.
