on the next last play of the game. The Broncos are lying.
game footage shows no limp no problem and he actually dropped back to pass and made the final winning pass on the next play.
the rumor is that something happened in the locker room in the celebration that maybe somebody landed on his ankle when they were jumping up and down or he twisted it
this is why Sean Payton conducted his entire press conference without mentioning it if it had happened on the field, he would’ve known about it on the sideline been briefed about it and known about it before the press conference
it happened while they were celebrating when he was at his press conference, and then when he left, he found out about it, came back into the press room, where the press was either still gathered or interviewing other people, and then made the announcement about his injury
I’m not sure if there are fines for lying or whether it really even matters or whether the Broncos are just doing it because it’s an insanely deflating, embarrassing frustrating way to essentially end your season. you win the biggest game of the year, runoff the field, jump up and down high five hug and lose your starting quarterback and also a very good chance at the Super Bowl
