Broncos QB Drew Lock is questionable to play Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, according to Ryan O'Halloran of the Denver Post.

Lock has logged limited practices twice this week. He gets a tough Miami defense if he does play, making him nothing more than Superflex-worthy in fantasy.

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock returned to practice on Thursday.

Lock missed Wednesday's practice session with the rib injury but was able to practice on a limited basis on Thursday. He should be able to play without a full practice tomorrow, but how the club plans to proceed in terms of protecting someone they view as their franchise quarterback remains to be seen, especially after Drew Brees played through a rib injury, only to be lost for multiple weeks. We should have an official word tomorrow, making this is a situation to monitor.

HC Vic Fangio said there's a chance Drew Lock might miss game. "It's day-to-day. We will see how he does."

Fangio added in the tweet that "We definitely want Drew to have a good week of a preparation. So that could enter into the equation" as far as a learning curve and if Drew could play without a full week of practice.

Denver Broncos second-year quarterback Drew Lock doesn't have to look over his shoulder following a four-interception game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday, but coach Vic Fangio made it clear Lock doesn't have any place to hide either.

"We're committed to Drew -- the more he can play, the better he'll be," Fangio said following a 37-12 loss to the Raiders. "... He's got to fight through this ... and we're going to continue to play him."

As the story said, six losses into a season that is now teetering on the edge of another double-digit-defeat slog, Lock's ability to sink or swim in the coming weeks will be watched closely. Lock is completing just 55% of his passes -- last among the league's starters -- has 10 interceptions and a passer rating of 66.5, which puts him ahead of only Sam Darnold. All 10 of Lock's interceptions have come since his Week 6 return from a right (throwing) shoulder injury, and six of the interceptions have come in the past eight quarters.

Broncos head coach Vic Fangio said QB Drew Lock is questionable for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots, according to Mike Giardi of the NFL Network. Fangio said Lock is trending in the right direction.

The Broncos will be an improved team with Lock, but a road start with missing offensive players is not the best way to reinsert your franchise QB. Lock is only usable in two QB and Superflex leagues.
