The Denver Broncos are exploring the possibility of trading for quarterback Spencer Rattler from the New Orleans Saints. ESPN's Dan Graziano reports that with Bo Nix as the starter, the Broncos seek a quality backup to navigate the NFL season. Rattler, who has starting experience but a challenging track record, could be an appealing option for Denver.
