ENGLEWOOD, Colo. - Squarely in the eye of a three-man competition to be the starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos, rookie Bo Nix said Saturday he wants to make certain he gives Broncos coach Sean Payton every reason to pick him for the job.
Nix, who is competing with Jarrett Stidham and former New York Jets' first-round pick Zach Wilson to open the season behind center, was asked after Saturday's practice if he was prepared "to accept'' a decision to be the team's backup if Payton's eventually chose Stidham or Wilson instead.
