Bo Nix is back — and better.
The 25-year-old quarterback was invited to the Pro Bowl as an alternate last season after surpassing 4,200 yards from scrimmage and scoring 34 touchdowns as a rookie. Nix’s first year in the league started a bit shaky, but he showed great improvement as the season went on, finishing the campaign as a Rookie of the Year contender.
Nix is now entering his second year in coach Sean Payton’s offense, and it’s clear that he’s more comfortable.
“Bo, he’s even more confident going into this year,” cornerback Pat Surtain said Tuesday. “Obviously, with Year 1 under his belt, a lot more confidence rises upon that. The team, we have Bo’s back through the whole way through. He’s a tremendous leader out there, and a tremendous player. This year, he’s going to make a lot of noise, and we’re looking forward to seeing what he does and his success moving forward.”
Nix completed 66.3% of his passes last season and only took 24 sacks, impressive totals for his debut year. He’ll look to improve on those totals in Year 2 as the Denver Broncos attempt to return to the playoffs after going 10-7 in 2024.
