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.

The New York Giants will place kicker Graham Gano on the COVID-19/reserve list after he tested positive on Monday night, a person with knowledge told NorthJersey.com and USA TODAY Network.

The story went on to say, the Giants say they were notified of the positive test for a player, but did not immediately disclose his identity. That player was self-isolated, and the contact tracing process has been initiated. Two close contacts identified are staff members (not coaches or players) and were told to stay home Tuesday. The team is on a bye week, but the training center in East Rutherford remains open for staff. Gano has a chance to be ready for Week 12 depending on how further tests turn out.

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.
