Case Keenum Expected To Remain With Broncos In 2019
6 years agoDenver Broncos quarterback Case Keenum, who is clearly not the team's QB of the future, is expected to stick around for one more year in 2019. If Denver were to cut Keenum, it'd leave $10 million in dead salary cap money. The more likely scenario is that Denver pays him $18 million in 2019 and also adds a quarterback through the draft or free agency while looking to the future. The soon-to-be 31-year-old was extremely mediocre in his first year with the Broncos, throwing for 3,890 yards (62.3 completion percentage) with 18 touchdowns and 15 interceptions. The Broncos are transitioning even more to a run-first offense in 2019, so Keenum won't be asked to do much and has a very low fantasy ceiling as a QB2.
