Brandon Stokley
2012 Game Worn Road Jersey
This jersey was worn by Brandon Stokley during the iconic October 15, 2012 MNF comeback win against the Chargers.
Entering the game with a 2-3 record and down 24-0 at halftime, the Broncos stormed back in the 2nd half. The Broncos took the lead for good on a 21-yard touchdown from Peyton Manning to Stokley in this jersey with just over nine minutes to play in the fourth quarter.
Here is what Stokley had to say on the moment: "I put my Super Bowl touchdown at one and then the [game-winning] Bengals catch at two, and [this catch] might be at three," Stokley said. "I just remember the play clock was winding down. Peyton was trying to change the play and the protection and get everything situated. We had the perfect look for the play he wanted to go to, and I just remember looking at the play clock and it was at 1, and I was like, 'Hike the ball, please hike the ball. We've got the perfect play call for their defense here.' We just got the snap off, and he just made a great throw. I just went up there and the ball stuck to my hands somehow someway.
"Certainly, a memorable catch for me. … It was a celebration of all celebrations. I was so excited. To be able to make that catch on a prime-time stage, and to be able to take the lead there, it was awesome. I remember my teammates, [Joel] Dreessen, Orlando [Franklin] and everybody just celebrating in that end zone. And Broncos Country always shows out for that game. We always had a lot of fans that went to San Diego. It was rocking and rolling. That was a special moment for me."
