I thought Trent Taylor was out in SF. He didn't play in the Super Bowl last year due to an injury. But, according to this link, he's #2 at his position on SF's depth chart.

I see Jeff Driskel is still hanging round in the NFL too. Not only that, he's listed as the #2 QB on Denver's depth chart, behind some 2nd year guy named Drew Lock, who has an 89.7 QB rating. That sounds like a starting job Driskel can win unless the Broncos bring in another QB to compete.
He was placed on injured reserve list following issues with foot surgery as Blue Dawg stated.
FWIW, there are odds for Drew Lock to win MVP this year. They are long odds but they exist and they don't exist for every QB in the NFL. Apparently there is a lot of hype with that kid. We will see.

About Trent Taylor from a few weeks ago.
I don't know, Lock doesn't sound all that impressive.
ESPN Fantasy Projection: The Denver defense is in excellent shape behind defensive-minded coach Vic Fangio, so the pressure will be on the second-year Lock to get this team back to the playoffs. The 2019 second-round pick failed to make much noise in five starts as a rookie, averaging a weak 6.5 YPA and managing only one weekly fantasy finish better than 20th. Denver is expected to continue leaning on a run-first offense, though Lock's supporting cast is looking much better after the team added Melvin Gordon, Jerry Jeudy and KJ Hamler to a group that already included Courtland Sutton, Noah Fant and Phillip Lindsay. Not a huge factor as a rusher, Lock figures to be limited to mid-to-back-end QB2 production, though he's an obvious deep sleeper in his second season.
Sneed getting some love in Bleacher Reports:
Most will agree that Clyde Edwards-Helaire was the Kansas City Chiefs' most impressive rookie in Week 1. The 32nd overall pick decimated the Texans run defense, racking up 138 yards on just 25 carries.
However, a case could be made that fourth-round pick L'Jarius Sneed was just as impressive, and his emergence was far less expected.
Snead didn't just get the start in his first NFL game; he shined. He totaled three tackles, two passes defended and one interception while playing 93 percent of the defensive snaps. He allowed just two completions for 19 yards despite being targeted seven times.
And Snead showed he can be dangerous if he gets his hands on the football. He took his interception back 39 yards, helping set up a touchdown that made the score 31-7 and essentially sealed the game.
Should also mention that X had a solid game, nothing too flashy. IMO that is a good indication of staying power - X is a starter now and fully part of the defense. He's progressed beyond "hey look at this rookie."
