In the midst of the dismantling of the Dallas Cowboys and their bottom-shelf defense, the Denver Broncos lost a vital player in what the team wants to do on offense. Nate Adkins, a player who does several things for the Broncos' offense, went down with a knee injury.

While the full details are not quite out yet, there is quite a concern from many after Denver's 9News reporter, Mike Klis, stated on his X platform that the injury might be significant. Adkins missed the first two games of the season for the Broncos.

His statistics aren't eye-popping —just six receptions for 48 yards and one touchdown this season— but it's always been his versatility that has made him so crucial to Broncos' Head Coach Sean Payton.
