"Obviously, the news was heartbreaking ... Praying for Bo [Nix]. I know he'll bounce back. He's a great player in this league," Drake Maye said.

The veteran quarterback was added to the Broncos’ practice squad in the wake of the season ending injury to Bo Nix, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Sunday.

Drake Maye led the New England Patriots to a 28-16 win over the Houston Texans in Saturday’s divisional round matchup. The two-time Pro Bowl quarterback finished with 16-of-27 completed passes for 179 yards, three touchdowns and one interception, adding 10 yards on the ground on four carries.

The Broncos' fight was on display as they knocked off the Bills, but can they make the Super Bowl without their starting quarterback?

When Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton broke the news that quarterback Bo Nix had fractured his ankle and would be done for the year, it seemed so unbelievable.

Every year, the playoffs are defined by a handful of players who show up in the biggest moments. This year will be no different.

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix and New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye threw three touchdown passes apiece to propel their teams into the AFC Championship Game. But only one of the second-year signal-callers will play in the Sunday contest that will decide the AFC’s representative in Super Bowl LX.
