DENVER (KDVR) — Broncos Country is weighing in on the team’s new quarterback.
On Wednesday, Denver announced Teddy Bridgewater as its top signal-caller.
The Carolina Panthers traded Bridgewater to the Broncos for a sixth-round draft pick. He had been in competition with Drew Lock for weeks until the decision came down.
Over at Empower Field at Mile High, one life-long fan says it was the right decision.
“I’m excited,” she says. “I hate to leave Drew (Lock) behind, but we’re real excited!”
The owner of SportsFan, in North Denver, said it may be until October before official Teddy Bridgewater Jerseys are in stock.
A handful of Drew Lock No. 3 Jerseys were spotted on the rack.
The Broncos face the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday night for their final preseason game. Empower Field at Mile High will be at full capacity.
