Emmanuel Sanders: Paxton Lynch looks ‘more relaxed’ in second season

Paxton Lynch

Paxton Lynch will be trying to take the Denver Broncos quarterback job away from Trevor Siemian, and he has one positive review so far.

Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders had praise for both quarterbacks, noting that Lynch has lost the “deer in the headlights” look that plagued him during his rookie season.

“I was just watching Trevor [Siemian] walk around and he’s walking around with that same confidence,” Sanders said Wednesday, via Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk. “You put him in the shotgun, and he can sling it around. You see Paxton [Lynch] and you see an opportunity at hand being a young guy last year.

“Paxton was like that deer in the headlights, walking around big-eyed. Now, he’s more relaxed. It’s going to be interesting to see how Paxton takes his second year. Hopefully he gets that Memphis swag back. [We’ll] see those two guys compete and see who wins the job.”

Lynch has faced some questions, albeit disputed ones, about his work ethic. He and Siemian are both getting good reviews from one of the team’s top receivers, though, and it seems he’ll have every chance to win the job before the season begins.
