The Broncos had football fans wonder why their locker room was filled with smoke after their statement win over the Eagles on Sunday.

Video of Broncos head coach Sean Payton giving a postgame locker room speech showed the room appearing to be filled with smoke.

There was so much smoke that Payton was hard to see at times when CBS cut to footage of the head coach addressing his team after the 21-17 victory over the Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field.

The scene had raised some fans’ curiosity, although Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer clarified the situation on social media.
