2023 NFL Free Agency Signings: Jarrett Stidham
Broncos sign QB Jarrett Stidham
Stidham signs a two-year deal with Denver to back up Mr. Unlimited, Russell Wilson. Stidham got a two-game cup of coffee with the Raiders last year, which is the most starting exposure he’s had in the NFL to this point. Everyone will recall his fantastic game against the 49ers, where he tossed for 365 yards and three scores, logging an 80.9 PFF passing grade. We can safely say this one game alone earned him this backup contract. The next week, Stidham turned back into a pumpkin with 6.1 yards per attempt and a 44.3 PFF passing grade. Stidham will be the locked-in QB2 on the Broncos’ roster, with Brett Rypien likely gone. If we see Stidham under center this year, things have gone horribly wrong for Wilson. Stidham is worth a bench spot in superflex dynasty leagues, and that’s it.
