Broncos Eyed Drew Brees as Bo Nix Injury Replacement in New Rumors on QB Mulling Ending Retirement
The Denver Broncos were forced to play Jarrett Stidham in their AFC Championship Game loss to the New England Patriots last season after Bo Nix fractured his ankle the previous round, but they reportedly first considered one of the greatest signal-callers in NFL history.
Drew Brees, who is nearing 50 now, was in talks to perhaps sub in for Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix in the AFC Championship. It’s a wild theory, but it is true.
The Broncos were dominated in every phase by the Chiefs in Week 1, and Sean Payton isn't making excuses for the ugly performance.
