Denver Broncos quarterback Paxton Lynch left Sunday’s game against the Oakland Raiders early with an ankle injury. After he was pulled, Lynch was seen on the sidelines with tears in his eyes.

It’s hard to not feel for Lynch after this.
This was only the third start of Lynch’s career and the first of the season. Even before the injury, things were not going his way. Lynch finished the day 9-for-14 with only 41 yards passing with no touchdowns and an interception.
Hopefully for Lynch’s sake, the injury isn’t that serious and he gets another chance under center.
