Broncos Fans Start Crowdfunding Page so Team Can Cut Paxton Lynch

Some fans of the Denver Broncos really don't want Paxton Lynch on the roster anymore.

A fan in Colorado set up a GoFundMe page to raise money to help the team release the quarterback, with a goal set of $600,000.

"Raising money to cover the Denver Broncos cost of cutting Quarterback Paxton Lynch off of the team roster," the page's description reads.

If the Broncos were to cut Lynch, he would carry a cap hit of $4.45 million this season and $1.87 million in 2019-20, per Spotrac.

Lynch was a first-round pick in 2016 out of the University of Memphis but has played sparingly. He has appeared in five games while going just 1-3 as a starter, producing a 76.7 quarterback rating. He has four career touchdowns to go with four interceptions.

Prediction: Chad Kelly Will Become The First "Mr. Irrelevant" To Start At Quarterback

“Mr. Irrelevant,” of course, refers to the last player taken in the NFL Draft in a given year. Since the NFL began in 1936, only six quarterbacks have been Mr. Irrelevant.

  • George Haffner (1965)
  • Randy Essington (1984)
  • Larry Wanke (1991)
  • Ronnie McAda (1997)
  • Chandler Harnish (2012)
  • Chad Kelly (2017)
Haffner, Essington, Wanke, and McAda all failed to make their teams. Harnish was on active rosters in Indianapolis and Minnesota from 2012-14, appearing in one game for Minnesota in 2014 without recording any statistics.

Kelly’s promotion to second string on the Broncos depth chart is, as far as I can tell from the spotty records available on this stuff, unprecedented in NFL history. The former Ole Miss star was about the only bright spot for the Broncos in a loss to the Vikings over the weekend, completing 14 of 21 passes for 177 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. Lynch was 6-for-11 for 24 yards, an interception and a sack.

Man, there are really some idiotic fans out there. For someone to actually try and setup the page and anyone who would actually donate money is an even bigger idiot. Raising money to reimburse billionaires, lol. Go out and raise that money for poor cancer patients or disabled veterans.

Chad Kelly has the arm talent and vision to be an NFL QB. His decision making off-the-field, though ...

I don't know how gofundme works, but if the person who started the page gets to do as he wishes with the funds, he might be a genius.

As a matter of fact, I would be willing to bet it might be a Chiefs fan who started the page.

Surely there's better things to raise money for. I have Asperger's Syndrome, raise money for that, not help a team cut a QB.

I tossed 'em $5 bucks, since ticket prices are so low. Thought they could use some help.

GIANT swing & a miss by Elway on this quarterback. See ya later, Paxton. Take your video games and get the hell outta Dove Valley. We're on to Keenum and Machine Gun Kelly!

He was the biggest project out of the top QB prospects that year from what I've read coming out. They must have known it was a risky pick.

Yeah, most of the experts thought he had all the tangibles but would be a 2-3 year project. Well, we're in his 3rd year and there's been no progress to speak of. As a Broncos fan, I wanted Paxton to be the next coming but it's not to be. Moving on.
