Jarrett Stidham led the Denver Broncos to a 16-9 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. Stidham, who started in place of benched quarterback Russell Wilson, had a solid performance, completing 20-of-32 passes for 224 yards and a touchdown. He showed poise, made good throws, and did not turn the ball over. Stidham had a 54-yard touchdown pass to Lil'Jordan Humphrey and a 41-yard completion to Jerry Jeudy. This was Stidham's third career start in the league. The Broncos never trailed in the game and Stidham's performance capped off an unexpected week for him.
