After 34 minutes, Broncos’ Kendall Hinton has first NFL completion

Kendall Hinton got his first NFL completion in the third quarter

Kendall Hinton was put in an impossible situation on Sunday. He went from nowhere to starting quarterback against the New Orleans Saints due to the Denver Broncos’ COVID-19 issues.

The going went from sluggish to nowhere and it took until about a third of the way through the third quarter before the former Wake Forest QB/WR had his first completion.

It went to tight end Noah Fant.

Hinton had one completion and a pair of interceptions as the game headed toward the fourth quarter with the Saints comfortably ahead.
