The Denver Broncos just experienced the most exciting win for the franchise in the last ten years, but the high of the win came at the cost of quarterback Bo Nix suffering a season-ending injury that will keep him out for the remainder of the playoffs.
Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix suffers season-ending injury vs. Buffalo Bills
Bo Nix orchestrated a legacy-defining drive in the final minute of Saturday’s exciting playoff matchup against the Buffalo Bills, and ultimately won it in overtime to send Denver to the AFC Championship game.
However, they’ll be without Nix next Sunday, and if Denver ends up at the Super Bowl. Nix suffered a fractured bone in his ankle in Saturday’s 33-30 overtime win, and it will end his season, as he’s set to have surgery on Tuesday in Birmingham, Alabama, head coach Sean Payton told us.
The injury happened on the second-to-last play in overtime.
“Not good news,” Payton said. “On the second-to-last play in overtime, Bo fractured a bone in his right ankle. He’s scheduled to have surgery Tuesday, which will put him out for the rest of the season. Jarrett Stidham’s ready to go.”
Denver won’t have a choice but to rely on the veteran backup, who is now stepping into one of the most important stretches of his career at one of the most crucial times.
This deals a massive blow to Denver’s Super Bowl aspirations, but the team will rally around Stidham, and it’s an opportunity for Stidham himself to write an incredible story, if the Broncos do in fact make it back to Santa Clara.
