The Denver Broncos’ social media team nailed it was a tweet about Kendall Hinton, who was forced to play quarterback for the team after its four rostered and practice squad players were ineligible due to COVID-19 violations.
The stats didn’t matter one drop. What Hinton did playing without any practice or reps was remarkable. This is the NFL and Denver forced someone into a horrendous situation.
There was a game today.
The final score is what it is.
Undrafted rookie WIDE RECEIVER @Kendall_Hinton2 came off the practice squad, had zero practice reps and competed in his first NFL game as the Broncos’ QUARTERBACK—an unprecedented situation.
He deserves all the respect. pic.twitter.com/C4UpkPTZBQ— Denver Broncos (@Broncos) November 29, 2020
