Bo Nix has officially earned the respect of his peers.

Each year, NFL Network has players rank who they consider the Top 20 players in the league. The network then sorts the results to form a Top 100 list of players going into the next season.

After one season with the Denver Broncos, Nix is ranked No. 64. That’s an impressive feat for a second-year QB.

Nix surpassed 4,200 yards from scrimmage last season and scored 34 touchdowns, earning an invite to the Pro Bowl as an alternate following the season (he had to decline due to injury). Players across the league now consider him a Top 64 player going into Year 2.

Nix is the second Broncos player to make this year’s list, joining defensive lineman Zach Allen (No. 90). Denver guard Quinn Meinerz and pass rusher Nik Bonitto seem likely to appear on the list, and star cornerback Pat Surtain should be a lock after winning Defensive Player of the Year in 2024.

After going 10-7 last fall and reaching the NFL playoffs for the first time since 2015, the Broncos have regained the NFL’s respect going into Sean Payton’s third year on the job.
