The nephew of Hall of Famer Jim Kelly is getting it done for Hall of Famer John Elway.

Quarterback Chad Kelly Tyler Seguin Jersey , the last player taken in the 2017 draft, finally has gotten some reps with the second-string offense in Denver, supplanting 2016 first-rounder Paxton Lynch. Via Mike Klis of 9News.com, Kelly is getting reps with the No. 2 team on Monday Ryan Getzlaf Jersey , and Lynch has been dropped to No. 3.

Lynch lost competitions in consecutive years with Trevor Siemian, also a seventh-round pick, to become the starter. Lynch now has to worry about losing the competition with seventh-rounder Kelly for the backup gig.

Kelly slid in the draft for reasons unrelated to his football skills, including a pair of serious injuries (wrist Michael Grabner Jersey , knee) and off-field issues. If healthy, Kelly could become a factor for a football executive who has had a hard time when it comes to draft quarterbacks.

On Saturday night against the Vikings, Kelly completed 14 of 21 passes for 177 yards, two touchdowns Devan Dubnyk Jersey , and one interception as the No. 3 quarterback. Lynch, operating as the primary backup, completed six of 11 passes for 24 yards and one interception.

The Giants claimed six players on Sunday and those additions mean that a handful of players who thought they made the team on Saturday will find out that they’re actually unemployed.

It wasn’t hard to predict that a quarterback would be part of that group after the Giants kept four of them through Saturday’s cuts. The betting favorite to wind up out of a job might have been Alex Tanney, but the team went a different way.

Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports that the Giants are waiving quarterback Davis Webb a year after drafting him in the third round.

Webb did not appear in any games as a rookie Scott Darling Jersey , although it seemed to be Ben McAdoo’s intention to get him some work before McAdoo was fired days after benching Eli Manning. Webb was 28-of-53 for 283 yards and a touchdown in the preseason.

2018 fourth-round pick Kyle Lauletta and Tanney remain on the depth chart behind Manning.
