The injury, which took place early in overtime in Denver's 19�16 loss, will cause Patrick to miss the remainder of the season, per Pelissero.
The circumstances that led to Patrick's severe injury were somewhat unordinary as he went outside of the side boundary while trying to make a tackle on Chargers punt returner DeAndre Carter. He collided with what appeared to be a media member, causing him to take an awkward step on a carpet that had been placed on the ground nearby.
Patrick's ankle got caught in a carpet when he tried to avoid a person on the sideline after covering a punt. Patrick's knee gave out and the defender tore his ACL, ending his season.
