After a strong start to the 2016 season, Denver Broncos quarterback Trevor Siemian has lost some momentum, but the team isn’t giving up on him yet.
Broncos head coach Gary Kubiak said on Monday that the team isn’t considering starting rookie Paxton Lynch in place of Siemian in Week 10 against the New Orleans Saints but did acknowledge that Siemian and the entire team must “get better,” per Mike Klis of KUSA.
Kubiak on whether consider Paxton Lynch: "No, we like what Trevor is doing. Like all of us, he has to get better.'' #9sports

Siemian, 24, is at 1,770 passing yards with 10 touchdowns and five interceptions in eight starts this season. But he completed less than half his passes in a loss to the Oakland Raiders on Sunday and has found the end zone only four times in his last four games combined.
The 22-year-old Lynch got one start in Week 5 against the Atlanta Falcons when Siemian was held out with a shoulder injury but threw for only 223 yards with a touchdown and an interception.
In spite of it all however, the Broncos have managed to go 6-3 on the year, which probably helps Siemian’s case. This former NFL star believes in him, and it sounds like his team still does too.
