The Bo Nix era is officially here!
Earlier this afternoon, Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton met with the media for the first time since their 27-2 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday and made a major announcement. He told reporters that rookie quarterback Bo Nix has been named the starter at quarterback.
This has been expected frankly since the team selected him with their 12th overall selection in the 2024 NFL Draft but the rookie has earned it. He showed growth and improvement throughout camp, carried that into the preseason opener vs. the Colts, the joint practice with the Packers, and topped it off with another impressive performance this past Sunday.
