Broncos’ Bo Nix looks more comfortable heading into 2nd season and elusive familiarity a big reason
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) - Bo Nix looks a lot more comfortable than he did a year ago at this time, and not just because he’s no longer a wide-eyed rookie trying to carve out some snaps behind Jarrett Stidham and Zach Wilson.
This marks the first time since he was attending Pinson Valley High School in Alabama that the Broncos' second-year starting quarterback heads into a season with the same offensive play-caller and quarterback coach.
"It's huge," Nix said Thursday in his first public comments since leading Denver's first playoff appearance since 2016 last season. "It's kind of weird going back to the first install, it's not new verbiage and not new things. It made it a lot easier this year.
"Honestly, it felt weird because it hasn't (like this) been since high school. I'm just used to learning different things, so it's good not to have to learn an entire new system this year and have the same play-caller and have the same quarterback coach."
