The former Pinson Valley High School and Auburn standout joined the Broncos as the 12th selection in the 2024 NFL Draft. As a rookie, Nix completed 376-of-567 passes for 3,775 yards with 29 touchdowns and 12 interceptions while starting every regular-season game. Denver posted a 10-7 record to earn its first playoff berth since the 2015 season.

A key goal for the Broncos is to challenge the Kansas City Chiefs’ long-standing dominance in the AFC West. Dethroning the reigning champions is a huge undertaking, but Denver is confident that a more cohesive offense, paired with their consistently strong defense, could make them genuine contenders for the division title.

The Denver Broncos quarterback room is headed up by two former Auburn quarterbacks in Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham.
