Exploring 5 wild Broncos QB options including Tom Brady, Cam Newton, Russell Wilson and more after Bo Nix injury

Hey, the Indianapolis Colts already did it, right? 

Maybe the Denver Broncos should take a swing for the fences and find an all-time great quarterback to take over after Bo Nix fractured his ankle at the end of the Divisional Round win over the Buffalo Bills. 

Jarrett Stidham is set to step in as the starter, with Sam Ehlinger as his backup.

Is that enough to win a Super Bowl?

The Broncos likely think so, but their fanbase might want better.

So let's get a little crazy. No idea is too outlandish here, even if these guys are quite old and potentially all washed up.

Can the Broncos sign Tom Brady?

Brady fits one criteria to be signed, but he's got a problem, too, so no.

He would be a free agent, because he retired from the NFL when his contract with the Buccaneers ended.

But his ownership stake in the Raiders would prevent him from playing for a different team.

The league could technically approve him to play for a different team while still having an ownership stake, but that seems unlikely.

Can the Broncos sign Cam Newton?

Yes, the Broncos can sign Newton.

He's not even officially retired, and he's a free agent.

He even mocked the fact that Rivers signed earlier this season. Cam would certainly be confident in his own abilities.

Can the Broncos sign Russell Wilson?

No, the Broncos can't sign Russ.

They're actually still paying him more than $30 million as dead cap hit, but he ended the regular season under active roster contract with the New York Giants, so he wouldn't be a free agent until the new league year in March.

Can the Broncos sign Aaron Rodgers?

No, the Broncos can't sign Rodgers.

He'll be a free agent when the new league year begins in March, but he isn't officially available yet.

Can the Broncos sign Jameis Winston?

No, the Broncos can't sign Sean Payton's old buddy Jameis.

He won't officially be a free agent until the new league year begins in March.

Who is the Broncos' new QB?

Unless the Broncos want to get wild and sign Cam Newton, it looks like Jarrett Stidham is their guy the rest of the way.
