ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Denver Broncos coach Gary Kubiak said Monday the team is fortunate quarterback Trevor Siemians shoulder injury wasnt worse, and the plan is for Siemian to start Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons if he progresses as expected this week.Siemian left Denvers 27-7 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers?on Sunday just before halftime with an injury to his left (nonthrowing) shoulder. Rookie Paxton Lynch came on in relief and finished 14-of-24 for 170 yards plus his first career touchdown pass.Siemian was evaluated by the Broncos medical staff Monday. Kubiak said he is day-to-day, but the expectation is that Siemian will practice at least some this week and will play against the Falcons.We feel fortunate with Trevor, and hopefully day-to-day and get him here to [Sunday], Kubiak said. He has a sprained shoulder. ... Obviously, its his nonthrowing shoulder, so its about getting him where he can go through the motion and stuff.Siemian was injured when he was sacked by Buccaneers defensive tackle Clinton McDonald just before halftime. To make the tackle, McDonald swung Siemian around and tossed him down directly on his left shoulder.Siemian was 5-of-7 passing for 68 yards and a touchdown. He was sacked three times; regarding a couple of them, Kubiak said Siemian had to get rid of the ball more quickly.And while the Broncos decision-makers, including Kubiak, were happy with Lynchs first regular-season work, Kubiak said multiple times, Trevors our starter.The Broncos players have a scheduled off day Tuesday and return to practice Wednesday. Siemian is expected to get treatment Tuesday and the rest of the week.Kubiak said that if Siemian progresses as expected physically, he has enough of a handle on the offense to play against the Falcons on Sunday, even if he is limited in practice this week.For his part, Siemian said he plans to still be ready to go against the Falcons. The Broncos play Sunday, and after that comes a Thursday night game in San Diego.Were going to get our best players on the field, Kubiak said. Trevors our starter, so were going to give him every opportunity to get there on Sunday. I was asked [Monday] could he play without a lot of practice, and that would never be a problem with him, because hes very bright with what were doing. Well push to get there and be as good as we can be against Atlanta.The Broncos have won all four of Siemians starts this season; he has 824 passing yards, six touchdowns and three interceptions.Hes just really, really sore, just going through that motion, going through that throwing motion, Kubiak said. Obviously, throwing the ball is not going to be a problem. Its how does it feel when he moves his trunk and those type of things. Josh Allen Jersey .

He made up for it with a big finish. Then again, the Bills new-look, aggressive defence had something to do with the early problems for the rookie quarterback. And they played without defensive end Mario Williams, who was held out to rest a sore left foot. Manuel threw two interceptions on his first eight attempts, before closing with two touchdowns, and scoring another on a 1-yard run. "I felt like I didnt start out how I wanted to, obviously," said Manuel, whose first throw was intercepted and returned for a touchdown by cornerback Leodis McKelvin. "The biggest thing for me was just to show that I could fight back, move past it. Obviously, its not going to be the last interception I throw in my career." The scrimmage was held 10 days into training camp in suburban Rochester, and in advance of the Bills preseason opener at Indianapolis on Sunday. By unofficial count, because the team did not release statistics, Manuel completed 9 of 17 attempts for 113 yards. He threw a perfectly placed 27-yard fade to T.J. Graham in the left corner of the end zone for his first touchdown. Manuel then hit Drew Smith on a 10-yard fade in just about the same spot for his second score. The downside came on the interceptions. Manuel misread which way receiver Robert Woods was going to cut, allowing McKelvin to jump the route. On his next interception, Manuels pass was batted at the line, and the ball fell into the hands of linebacker Arthur Moats. Manuel appeared flustered at times by the various pass-rushing formations in new co-ordinator Mike Pettines scheme. Rookie linebacker Kiko Alonso stopped Manuel for what wouldve been a loss, while tackles Marcell Dareus and Jay Ross were effective in stuffing the run in goal-line situations. "Im pleased with it," coach Doug Marrone said, assessing Manuels performance and progress. "I was really looking to see how he bounced back from that because early on, you want to see that. I thought he bounced back well." Marrone was most impressed with how Manuel handled himself during a 2-minute session. He orchestrated a seven-play, 75-yard drive cappped by Tashard Choices 1-yard plunge with 20 seconds remaining.dddddddddddd Manuel hit 2 of 3 attempts, including a perfectly placed 15-yard strike to Woods back shoulder. Selected 16th overall out of Florida State, Manuel was the only quarterback to go in the first round of this years draft. He is competing with veteran free-agent addition Kevin Kolb to win the starting job out of training camp. Manuel had the benefit of working exclusively with the first-team offence after Kolb was excused earlier in the day following a death in his family. Kolb also missed practice on Sunday after he hurt his left knee slipping on a wet mat during practice a day earlier. Marrone said there was a chance Kolb wouldve been cleared for the scrimmage. For Manuel, it was an inconsistent performance that served as a reminder of how much work is still ahead of him. "I think overall, just continue to get better every day," Manuel said. "Even though you face some adversity, sometimes I feel like you could still learn from those things and still get better from them." On the upside, McKelvins interception continued whats been a solid camp for the sixth-year player competing for a starting job. "Hey, its great to have the first touchdown of the day," McKelvin said. "It is important. Im very confident in myself, and Im ready to go out there and make plays, and confident in myself to win this job." Receiver Marquise Goodwin, a rookie third-round pick, made several acrobatic catches. His first came on a 45-yard pass from Jeff Tuel, when he showed off his speed to beat cornerback T.J. Heath. Tuel, an undrafted rookie, had a solid outing against Buffalos second- and third-string defences. He also made a great throw across his body to hit a wide-open DaRick Rogers for a 48-yard catch. NOTES: WR Stevie Johnson (left hamstring) did not scrimmage. DT Kyle Williams, coming off off-season foot surgery, was held out as a precaution. ... Undrafted rookie DT Aaron Tipoti did not return after hurting his right ankle in a goal-line drill. ... Marrone reintroduced the scrimmage to training camp after his two most recent predecessors -- Chan Gailey and Dick Jauron -- were against lengthy full-contact sessions. ' ' '
