Brock Osweiler will reportedly start against Patriots
The Denver Broncos are reportedly planning to start Brock Osweiler against the New England Patriots next weekend.
The team has not made an official announcement, but Chris Mortensen of ESPN reports that a decision has been reached.
Brock Osweiler will make another start for the Broncos against the Patriots on Sunday night, per team sources. More on NFL Insiders, 2:30 ET

Osweiler led Denver to a win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday, throwing for 250 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. It’s unclear if the Broncos are sticking with him because of the way he performed or if Peyton Manning simply needs more time to heal.
If Denver beats the New England Patriots next weekend, it will be interesting to see if Manning gets his job back. A report that surfaced Sunday night about Manning’s plans for the 2016 season makes you wonder if his his days as the Broncos’ starting quarterback are coming to a close.
