Jarrett Stidham to Make Unprecedented Playoff Start for Broncos in AFC Title Game
Denver Broncos QB Jarrett Stidham is set to start the AFC Championship game against the Patriots following Bo Nix's season-ending injury. This marks an unprecedented situation, as Stidham will be the first QB since 2012 to make his first playoff start without a regular season pass, and the first ever to do so in a conference championship. With only four NFL starts, Stidham has received advice from former QBs Jeff Hostetler and Nick Foles to "block out the noise." Coach Sean Payton expresses confidence in Stidham, who was a priority free agent. Stidham faces a significant challenge in his biggest NFL career game.
