Broncos will start QB Bo Nix next week (but the Packers might rest their starters)

The Denver Broncos will start rookie quarterback Bo Nix in their next preseason game against the Green Bay Packers on Aug. 18.

Nix impressed in his NFL debut against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, but Denver's starting lineup for next week was pre-planned.

When Broncos coach Sean Payton announced last Friday that Jarrett Stidham would start against the Colts, he also announced that Nix would start against the Packers the following week.

Nix completed 15 of his 21 passing attempts for 125 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions against Indianapolis.
