Broncos rally from 16-0 halftime deficit to tie Rams 16-16

Denver trailed the Los Angeles Rams 16-0 at halftime but erased the deficit in the third quarter. Quarterback Bo Nix threw an 8-yard touchdown pass to tight end Nate Adkins and completed a two-point conversion to Pat Bryant, tying the score at 16-16 with 2:15 left in the period. Earlier, rookie returner Kolbe Katsis sparked the comeback with a 28-yard punt return that set up the Broncos' first points of the night. Denver then converted four consecutive third downs, including a third-and-goal where Nix connected with Bryant for a five-yard touchdown, followed by a two-point conversion to Jaylen Waddle. A special-teams penalty on Rams defender Emmanuel Forbes gave Denver favorable field position, starting a drive at the 48-yard line. Waddle advanced the ball into the red zone with a 14-yard end-around, and Nix later found Tyler Badie for a 12-yard gain. On second-and-goal, Nix threw to Adkins for a touchdown, and a successful conversion to Bryant completed the rally. Broncos running back RJ Harvey is being evaluated for a possible concussion.
