The joining of the Broncos would bring in a major piece of the No Fly Zone.

Although it was suspected he suffered an injury to his ribs at first, it was later discovered Talib suffered a knee injury. Head coach Bill Belichick stated "As it turned out, it was a key play in the game." Without Talib, Kyle Arrington and rookie Logan Ryan were tasked with covering Demaryius Thomas as the Patriots' defense gave up 505 yards, the most during the Belichick's tenure with New England at the time.
