The Denver Broncos beat the Seattle Seahawks 17-14 in overtime on October 15, as JaQuan McMillian’s interception of Sam Darnold set up Will Lutz’s 53-yard winning field goal.

George Holani scored on a 1-yard run in the fourth quarter, and Darnold connected with Rashid Shaheed on a two-point conversion to make it 14-11.

Jason Myers tied the game with a 34-yard field goal with three seconds left. On Seattle’s first possession in overtime, McMillian intercepted Darnold.

Denver’s defense recorded five sacks, according to game accounts. Bo...
