From the article

handpicked veteran backup Jarrett Stidham locked in as the team's QB2; Payton's first free agent signing was Stidham, and he has shown faith in him throughout his tenure, including re-signing him to a two-year contract worth $12 million in 2025.

STACKED’s take

NeutralDepth Chart

Stidham favored to keep QB2 despite Ehlinger's offseason performance and AFC Championship struggles.

Stidham is locked in as the Broncos QB2 after signing a two-year, $12 million contract in 2025. He was Sean Payton's first free agent signing and has shown consistent faith from the head coach throughout his tenure. However, a rough showing in the AFC Championship Game and Ehlinger's improved play in year two of the system could create pressure on the veteran backup. Payton's prior commitment and system familiarity give Stidham the edge to retain the backup role, but a competitive training camp battle with Ehlinger is expected.
