A terrifying situation developed on the Broncos sideline at MetLife Stadium. 

Running back Tyler Badie collapsed before the start of the second quarter during the 10-9 Broncos’ win over the Jets on Sunday and had to be carted off with what Denver later described as a back injury. 

Following the game, Broncos coach Sean Payton did not have an update on Badie, nor would he say if the running back would be flying back to Denver with the team, according to the Denver Post.

However, Pro Football Talk reported that Badie did have movement in his extremities and that he is expected to be fine.

The incident occurred shortly after Badie was hit in the back during a play and coughed up the ball because of the hit. 

The running back caught a pass from quarterback Bo Nix but quickly got hit by Quincy Williams for what would have been a four-yard loss before the ball popped out. 

Michael Carter II recovered the ball and the Jets wound up getting a field goal out of the whole thing. 

But Badie was later seen on his back on the sideline with Broncos trainers and medical personnel looking at the 24-year-old’s back. 

He was eventually placed on a backboard and carted off the field.

The 2024 season marked Badie’s third season with the Broncos since he was signed off the Ravens practice squad in 2022. 

The Broncos signed Badie to the active roster earlier this week off their practice squad.
