Denver Broncos backup quarterback Drew Lock is out for Sunday’s game at Dallas due to COVID protocol.

The team announced his status four hours before kickoff of the Broncos’ Week 9 game at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Lock lost the preseason quarterback competition with Teddy Bridgewater, who will start again for the Broncos (4-4) on Sunday.

Tight end Noah Fant is on the COVID-19 list after a positive test earlier in the week and out at Dallas.

With Lock unavailable, Brett Rypien is the No. 2 quarterback for the Broncos.

In November 2020, Lock was ruled ineligible for a game against the New Orleans Saints for violating COVID protocols.
