DENVER (AP) —&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/Broncos/status/1868446041219203558">Nik Bonitto's defensive touchdown</a>&nbsp;was jaw-dropping.&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/NFLhaterwatch/status/1868434682490372291">Jonathan Taylor's botched touchdown</a>&nbsp;run was head-scratching.

Bonitto foiled a trick play by stepping in front of quarterback Anthony Richardson and hijacking Adonai Mitchell's lateral pass, then racing 50 yards for a touchdown Sunday that sealed the Denver Broncos' 31-13 win over the Indianapolis Colts.

A blunder by Taylor turned the game around in the third quarter. Indy's star running back dropped the ball milliseconds before crossing the goal line on what would have been a 41-yard touchdown.

“That can’t happen," said Taylor, who finished with 107 yards — but no touchdowns — on 22 carries. “No, you’re never consciously aware you’re dropping the ball. Otherwise, you wouldn’t do it.”

The blunder breathed new life into the Broncos, whose special teams and defense would bail out a sputtering offense that managed just 193 yards.

“If he would have scored that touchdown, it would have been even more of a dogfight to get back,” Denver pass rusher Jonathon Cooper said. “We would have had a tougher fight. ... I just hope it never happens to us.”

Denver's defenders dejectedly retreated to the sideline, but suddenly the 76,416 fans roared. Safety P.J. Locke said he looked up and saw the replay on the giant scoreboard and suddenly the Broncos had a holiday gift.

Instead of lining up for the extra point to give the Colts a 20-7 lead, the touchback left the reeling Colts clinging to a six-point edge they would soon relinquish.

“That was a game changer, yeah, absolutely,” Colts coach Shane Steichen said. “Obviously, it hurt us, but he’s one of our leaders. Sometimes that happens in football, but he’s our guy, and that’s what you say to him.”

With five takeaways, the Broncos (9-5) ended a seven-year string of losing records and strengthened their grip on an AFC wild-card berth that would end a playoff drought dating to 2016. They began defense of their Super Bowl 50 title that season with a 4-0 start, which was the last time they sat four games above .500.

The Colts (6-8) blew both an early 10-0 lead and a big opportunity to tighten the AFC wild-card race, and the biggest reasons were Taylor's blunder and Bonitto's plunder.

Denver had just taken its first lead of the game on Bo Nix's 15-yard touchdown toss to tight end Nate Adkins that made it 17-13 when Bonitto scored his second touchdown in two games.

Bonitto, who had a pick-6 against Cleveland before the Broncos' bye week, was in full stride when he caught Mitchell's pass at the midfield logo and raced untouched to the end zone.

The play was officially recorded as a fumble recovery and not a pick-6 because it was a backward pass. Whatever you want to call it, Cooper said it was just the spark the Broncos needed.

“Man, I love playing with this dude,” Cooper said. “His football instincts are off the charts. He's a phenomenal football player. He's got my vote for Defensive Player of the Year.”

Mitchell said his coach had admonished him to throw the ball away if he saw the Broncos sniffing out the trickery, but he said he never sensed Denver had deciphered the play.

“It was there pretty much until 15 turned into Ed Reed and just came through out of nowhere,” Mitchell said.

Denver's five takeaways more than made up for Nix's first three-interception game of his rookie season.

One of Denver's interceptions was by cornerback Patrick Surtain II, who limped to the sideline tent with a sprained right ankle. He went back in the game but was helped off the field just before the 2-minute warning after seemingly aggravating the injury. He left the stadium without comment but wasn't in a walking boot, a good sign because the Broncos have a short week before their next game.

The Broncos' barrage of points started with Wil Lutz's 44-yard field goal that pulled Denver to 13-10 and ended with Nix's 20-yard TD pass to Courtland Sutton.

Richardson completed just five of 17 passes for 56 yards in the first half and one of those completions was to himself. It came in his own end zone after Jonah Ellis batted down his throw.

Richardson capped Indy's opening drive with a 23-yard touchdown run after twice converting on third-and-10.

Both of these AFC wild-card contenders were coming off a bye week and both looked more rusted than rested.

“It won't be fun looking at the tape,” bemoaned Broncos coach Sean Payton.

Imagine how much worse it'll be for Taylor and the Colts.

Colts WR Alec Pierce left in the first half with a concussion.

Broncos RG Quinn Meinerz (shoulder) and RB Jaleel McLaughlin (thigh) both left late in the third quarter. Surtain got hurt in the fourth, as did DT D.J. Jones (finger).

Colts: Host the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.

Broncos: Visit the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday night.

🏈 Broncos roar back with 5 takeaways to beat Colts

CLEVELAND (AP) — The only thing the Chiefs had to worry about in the final minutes Sunday was Patrick Mahomes' ankle.

Mahomes threw two touchdown passes before limping off with an injury in the fourth quarter, Xavier Worthy ran for a score and Kansas City finally had a relatively easy win, 21-7 over the mistake-prone Cleveland Browns.

Mahomes connected for TDs in the first half&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/Chiefs/status/1868357953780396068">with Juju Smith-Schuster</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/Chiefs/status/1868373621355274266">Noah Gray</a>&nbsp;as the Chiefs (13-1) built a 21-0 lead and then slogged their way through an ugly second half.

The defending Super Bowl champions have 10 wins by seven points or less, with six coming on the game's final play.

Mahomes didn't finish the game, leaving when he got his ankle rolled up on while being tackled. Carson Wentz replaced him for the final 5:23. Mahomes finished 19 of 38 for 159 yards.

After the game, Mahomes said X-rays were negative. He said he would have lobbied harder to stay in if the Browns had gotten within one score.

“We'll get into the rehab part, the treatment part and try to get back on a short week,” said Mahomes, noting the Chiefs will play again Saturday — the second of three games in 11 days. “With all the adrenaline from the game, it's hard to tell now (if he can play). Usually, it's the day after when you get a good sense of it."

Mahomes was driven to the Chiefs' buses on a cart.

Coach Andy Reid was relieved Mahomes was not more seriously hurt.

“It's not broken, that's all I can tell you,” Reid said. “We'll have to see how it goes down the road.”

The Browns (3-11) tried to put up a fight, but had six turnovers. Other than a&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/Browns/status/1868390624145088796">62-yard TD run from Jerome Ford</a>, Cleveland had few offensive highlights and too many self-inflicted miscues.

Jameis Winston threw more three interceptions — two in the end zone to give him eight in his last three games — and the Browns had two fumbles. The five turnovers made things much easier on Mahomes and the Chiefs, not that they needed a lot of help.

Cleveland running back Nick Chubb suffered a broken foot. It's another setback for the star, who had a devastating knee injury last season.

Winston was pulled after his third pick and replaced by second-year QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson, who also was intercepted. Coach Kevin Stefanski would not commit to a starter for next week.

“You can't have six turnovers and win,” Stefanski said. “At any level.”

Cleveland's Jerry Jeudy had 11 catches for 108 yards and went over 1,000 for the season.

The Chiefs' second TD — Mahomes' 6-yard pass to Gray with 4:46 left in the first half — came on the same play Browns&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/Reflog_18/status/1868374001279795655">star defensive end Myles Garrett left the field in extreme pain</a>&nbsp;with an apparent eye injury.

Garrett was rushing Mahomes and being blocked by Chiefs left tackle Joe Thuney when he suddenly stopped. The league's reigning Defensive Player of the Year immediately grabbed his face mask and pulled off his helmet, flinging it away before dropping to the turf.

He was face down for several minutes before being helped off. As Garrett walked toward the locker room holding a towel to his face, Thuney came over and patted him on the back. Garrett was only gone for a short period before he ran back on to the field and finished the game.

The Chiefs took a 21-0 lead early in the third, capitalizing on a pick by Winston that went off Chubb's hands. Four plays later, Worthy took a deep pitch from Mahomes, turned the corner and scored.

Kansas City's first score was set up by Cleveland's first turnover.

After the Browns forced a three-and-out on Kansas City's first possession, Cleveland's James Proche II fumbled during a punt return and the Chiefs recovered at the 21.

Mahomes then connected with Schuster for a 7-yard TD with 12:12 left in the first quarter.

Taylor Swift ended her world tour. She decided not to hit the road in the NFL just yet.

The pop superstar had been expected to attend the game to cheer on boyfriend Travis Kelce, the Chiefs tight end who grew up in Cleveland. But Swift, who turned 35 on Friday, wasn't on hand despite rumors she would make an appearance.

Taylor has been at several Chiefs games in Kansas City the past two seasons since she began dating Kelce.

Chiefs: S Chamarri Conner suffered a concussion while making a tackle in the second quarter. ... Kelce came up limping after an early play, but walked it off and stayed in. He left the locker room before reporters had access.

Browns: CB Martin Emerson Jr. went to the locker room in the second quarter to be evaluated for a concussion. He did not return. ... DT Shelby Harris (elbow) went out in the second quarter.

Chiefs: Host Houston on Dec. 21 before visiting Pittsburgh on Christmas Day.

By GERARD WELLBROCK Hays Post

LIBERTY, Mo. – Fort Hays State rallied from a 15-point deficit late in the first half and beat William Jewell College 63-59 Saturday at the Mabee Center in a battle of NCAA Tournament teams from a year ago.

Kaleb Hammeke was fouled on a driving layup with 7:31 to play to give the Tigers (5-3) their biggest lead at 61-55. FHSU wouldn't score again until Hammeke's layup with 5.7 seconds left. The Tigers held the Cardinals (4-6)&nbsp; to just four points over the final 10 minutes of the game and&nbsp; The Tigers held the Cardinals to just 2-of-9 shooting and four turnovers in the final 10 minutes.

William Jewell's Jordan Jermain scored 20 of his game-high 25 points in the first half. He hit his first four 3-point shots and made seven of his first eight field-goal attempts overall. The Cardinals shot a 62.5-percent from the field in the first half, including a 6-of-10 effort from beyond the 3-point line to build a 41-29 halftime lead.

Fort Hays State opened the second half on a 10-2 run to pull within four in the first three minutes. After William Jewell pushed the lead back to eight, Shaun Riley scored eight points of a&nbsp;13-4 Tiger run in which they took their first lead since early in the first half on a Dan Makuna layup.&nbsp;

FHSU outscored William Jewell 34-18 in the second half and outscored the Cardinals to just 34.8 percent shooting in the second frame, including just 1-of-7 from beyond the arc. FHSU was shooting 62 percent from the field in the second half but hit just one of their final eight shots.

Hammeke scored FHSU's&nbsp; final seven points and led five Tigers in double-figures with 11 points. Riley, Kyle Grill, R.J, Crawford and Traejon Davis&nbsp;all scored 10 points each. All nine Tigers that played scored. The Tigers out-rebounded Cardinals by seven led by Riley's nine boards. Hammeke dished out a team-high four assists.

Joining Jermain in double figures for the Cardinals were Luke Jordan with 11 and Bryce Mitchell with 10.

Fort Hays State will take just a day off and return to action Monday night at Gross Memorial Coliseum when it takes on Bethel College at 7 p.m. FHSU will be at home for its next three games, all within the span of seven days before the holiday break.&nbsp;&nbsp;

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Zeke Mayo hit five 3s and scored 26 points, Hunter Dickinson had 21 points and 14 rebounds, and No. 10 Kansas bounced back from consecutive losses with a 75-60 rout of NC State on Saturday.

Dajuan Harris Jr. added 15 points and six assists for the Jayhawks (8-2), who scored the first 15 points of the game but didn't have it in hand until midway through the second half, when Dickinson scored eight consecutive points to bury the Wolfpack.

Kansas won its 20th consecutive nonconference home game and avoided its first three-game skid since the 2022-23 season.

Ben Middlebrooks had 14 points and Brandon Huntley-Hatfield finished with 12 for the Wolfpack (7-4), who have lost their last 13 games to Kansas since winning their first matchup at Allen Fieldhouse on Dec. 20, 1958.

NC State was able to get the Kansas big men into foul trouble, and that allowed Middlebrooks to have success. But the Wolfpack didn't get enough production from the perimeter, where Dontrez Styles and Marcus Hill struggled.

Kansas proved it could survive foul trouble in the paint. Dickinson had three fouls and KJ Adams Jr. and Flory Bidunga four apiece with 12 minutes left. But the Jayhawks' guards, and Mayo in particular, were able to take over the game.

The Jayhawks led 48-41 with 13:10 left when Mayo rattled in a 3-pointer from the corner. He added a free throw moments later, then a blow-by layup, giving Kansas a 54-41 lead with 12 minutes to go.

5 — Harris hit a layup with 18:14 left to give him 1,001 points for his career. He's the fifth member of the team to surpass that plateau, joining Mayo, Dickinson, David Coit and Shakeel Moore.

NC State plays Rider on Dec. 22. Kansas plays Brown the same day.

<a href="https://themiaanetwork.com/fhsutigers/"></a>Fort Hays State Men's Basketball returns to action on Saturday at William Jewell College in Liberty, Mo. This matchup features a pair of schools that both won at least 20 games last year and competed in the NCAA Tournament last year. The Tigers enter at 4-3 overall and 1-1 in the MIAA, while the Cardinals are 4-5 overall and 1-2 in the Great Lakes Valley Conference.

The Tigers are coming off a 71-57 loss in MIAA play to No. 3 ranked Washburn this past weekend in Hays. It was FHSU's first home loss of the season after four-straight wins. FHSU will be seeking its first win away from Hays this season after dropping a pair of games to open the season in Minnesota.

William Jewell dropped its last two games, which were road contests in GLVC play last week. The Cardinals lost at Rockhurst on December 5 and then at Southwest Baptist on December 7. William Jewell is 2-0 at home so far this season with a win over Emporia State and a conference win over Illinois-Springfield. William Jewell is facing all of the Kansas faction of the MIAA this year, holding a 1-2 record so far against the group. The Cardinals fell to Pittsburg State in Kansas City by one point back on November 15 and then by eight points at Washburn on November 23. WJC faces FHSU this weekend and then heads to Wichita to play Newman on December 17. William Jewell also has a one-point loss to Missouri Western this year, so it holds a 1-3 record against MIAA opponents so far this season.

This is Fort Hays State's first meeting with a GLVC opponent since the 2019-20 season when it met Southwest Baptist, a former MIAA member, in Kansas City at Municipal Auditorium. It is looking for its first win over a GLVC opponent since 2013-14, when it defeated Rockhurst at the Sprint Center (now T-Mobile Center) in Kansas City.

Kaleb Hammeke&nbsp;leads a trio of Tigers averaging double figures in scoring this year for the Tigers. Hammeke averages 14.6 points per game, while Kyle Grill&nbsp;averages 13.9 and Shaun Riley&nbsp;averages 13.0. Hammeke leads the Tigers in assists at 4.4 per game. Riley is the team leader in rebounding at 6.8 per game.

William Jewell has four players averaging double figures in scoring, led by Jordan Jermain at 18.8 per game. Jason Thirdkill, Jr. is close behind at 17.2 per game. Both have 31 free-throws made on the year to lead WJC and they have combined for half of William Jewell's 3-point field goals made for the season.

This will be the first-ever meeting between Fort Hays State and William Jewell in men's basketball.&nbsp;&nbsp;

HILL CITY—The TMP-Marian Monarchs boys and girls basketball teams split a pair of Mid-Continent League games on the road Friday night in Hill City. The TMP girls won 54-21, while the boys lost 51-41. 

Hill City had an early 3-2 lead, but the Monarchs’ Brooke Koenigsman connected on a three-pointer with less than five and a half minutes left in the first quarter, sparking a 13-2 run to put TMP (2-2, 1-0 MCL) up 15-5 at the end of the first quarter.&nbsp;

It was more of the same in the second quarter when the Monarchs extended their first-half run to 26-3 and built a 28-6 lead.&nbsp;

&nbsp; TMP led 33-13 heading into the fourth quarter.&nbsp;

The Monarchs closed out the game outscoring Hill City 21-6 in the second half on their way to the win.&nbsp;

Claire Schippers scored 11 points, and 10-of-11 Monarchs who played scored.&nbsp;

BOYS: Hill City 51, TMP 41 The TMP-Marian boys could not overcome a low-scoring second quarter, dropping their fourth straight to start the year Friday, 51 to 41.&nbsp;

After an early three-pointer by Hill City (1-1, 1-1 MCL), the Monarchs scored five straight points on a WIll Eck three-pointer and a Ty Schmeidler field goal. &nbsp;&nbsp;

But that lead was short-lived as the Ringnecks proceeded to outscore TMP 18-4 to end the first and cover the entire second and the early moments of the third.&nbsp;

Caden Dinkel connected on a three-pointer with just 10 seconds left, pulling TMP (0-4, 0-1 MCL) within two points. But a Hill City three with non-time left gave them a five-point lead at 32-27. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 

Hill City opened the fourth quarter shooting 4-for-4 from the floor, and they were able to  extend their lead to 11 at 38-27.&nbsp;

Ty Schmeidler broke out of his 1-for-18 from three with four three-pointers and scored a team-high 15 points. &nbsp;
