Broncos owner Pat Bowlen reiterated what the quarterback pecking order is in Denver.
Kyle Orton is still the guy, and Brady Quinn won't be given his job.
He'll have to earn it.
"It'll be interesting," Bowlen told the Denver Post. "He's got the right tools and pedigree. Kyle's still our quarterback, absolutely. Quinn hasn't beaten Kyle out. He hasn't thrown a football."
Orton has yet to sign his first-round tender, but he's expected to ultimately do so so he doesn't lose his grasp on the starting job.
Meanwhile, Bowlen had little to say about restricted free agent wide receiver Brandon Marshall, who's a no-show at the offseason program and has visited the Seattle Seahawks.
"I don't know anything about Brandon," Bowlen said. "Haven't talked to him."

That endorsement is as empty as it gets. Remember, Shanahan was "coach for life" and Cutler was "the man around here now". Bowlen knows NOTHING about the direction of Josh's team.
