Denver Broncos head coach Gary Kubiak was hospitalized after the team’s 23-16 loss to Atlanta on Sunday, but is reportedly resting comfortably this morning.
According to Nick Groke of the Denver Post, Kubiak was taken to an ambulance and whisked away about ten minutes after giving his postgame news conference. A team spokesperson said the coach was experiencing flu-like symptoms, calling the hospitalization precautionary.
The Broncos have a short week, so according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, it’s unclear if he’ll be able to coach Thursday against San Diego. More importantly, though, is the fact that, according to Schefter, Kubiak is feeling better as of Monday morning.

Remember, back in 2013, Kubiak experienced this scary incident. This doesn’t sound like it was nearly as serious. Given Kubiak’s previous health scare, though, there was definitely reason for concern, and it’s good that it sounds like he’s faring well.
