Trevor Siemian Back As Broncos Starting Quarterback

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (CBS4)- The Denver Broncos have switched quarterbacks once again, just one day after the team's devastating loss to the Oakland Raiders.

Broncos head coach Vance Joseph said on Monday that "Paxton has an ankle injury that will keep him out 2-4 weeks, so Trevor will be the quarterback."

Trevor Siemian was pulled as starting quarterback after the Broncos- Kansas City Chiefs game on Oct. 30 and Brock Osweiler was put in as starting quarterback.

The Broncos take on the Miami Dolphins at 11 a.m. Sunday.
