Denver Broncos fans are waiting and hoping for the best after wide receiver Tim Patrick was taken off the practice field on a cart after suffering a non-contact injury at practice on Tuesday.
According to Brandon Krisztal, who covers the Broncos for KOA 850 AM in Colorado, Patrick went down after making a catch in a team drill:
