Kalispell quarterback Brock Osweiler is featured on this week’s regional cover of Sports Illustrated.

Osweiler’s cover treatment comes after he led the Denver Broncos to a come-from-behind overtime victory Sunday night over the previously unbeaten New England Patriots.

Under the headline, “Brock On!” the cover reads:

“After a Manning-esque comeback against the Patriots, former understudy Brock Osweiler is two for two as Denver’s main man.”

Osweiler, a Flathead High School graduate, has quarterbacked the Broncos to two wins after veteran quarterback Peyton Manning was benched due to a foot injury.

Inside the magazine, Sports Illustrated’s Austin Murphy discusses the 25-year-old Osweiler’s emergence from understudy to the leader of a first-place team.

The Osweiler cover will be delivered to Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana.

NBA star LeBron James is featured on the national cover.
