Broncos’ Flacco: It’s not my job to groom Lock


ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — It’s not that Denver Broncos quarterback Joe Flacco won’t help rookie quarterback Drew Lock, it’s that Flacco doesn’t think mentoring the young passer is the biggest part of his job description.
“Listen, I have so many things to worry about. I’m trying to go out there and play good football. I’m trying to go out there and play the best football of my life,” Flacco said Monday, after the Broncos’ first day of organized team activities. “As far as a time constraint and all of that stuff, I’m not worried about developing guys or any of that. That is what it is. I hope he does it well. I don’t look at that as my job. My job is to go win football games for this football team.”
Later Flacco added: “Listen, I hope he does learn from me because that means we’re out there and we’re slinging it around and having a lot of fun.”
In the end, Flacco said, he is learning a new offense as well and that Lock would glean more from offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello than anyone else during the process. The Broncos made Lock the second of two second-round picks — the 42nd selection overall — in last month’s NFL draft.
The Broncos’ decision-makers, including coach Vic Fangio and president of football operations and general manager John Elway, have repeatedly said Flacco is the team’s starter and that Lock would initially compete with Kevin Hogan for the backup job.
