How long will Tim Patrick be out for?
After getting carted off, the Broncos receiver was seen using crutches for his left leg. The ACL injury that he sustained last year was in his right leg, but this time around he has suffered an Achilles injury.
As per Adam Schefter, it is a season-ending injury and Patrick will be out for the second straight campaign. It is a huge blow for the Broncos who had high aspirations for the upcoming season.
Sean Payton had earlier hinted at a left Achilles injury for Patrick, and now that it is confirmed, it will be interesting to see how the franchise deals with it.
Russell Wilson, who had built a great chemistry with Patrick during last season's training camp will once again be without him during the season. As a result, pressure will be on Jerry Jeudy and Courtland Sutton to lead from the front.
