Broncos QB Bo Nix delivered 222 yards and 1 score on a 51.7% completion rate in Sunday’s win over Arizona. Nix also did his best Lamar Jackson impression with a 62-yard rushing score in the second quarter.

The Broncos beat the Seahawks in spite of QB Bo Nix on Thursday night. He completed 17 of 27 passes (63%) for 107 yards. That’s a pathetic 3.96 yards per attempt. Nix threw just 3 passes farther than 10 yards past the line of scrimmage and completed none of them. Seven of his completions came behind the line of scrimmage. Nix added just 2 rushing yards for a dreadful fantasy outing.

Broncos HC Sean Payton is taking over offensive play-calling duties for Sunday's game vs. the Chargers. The news was initially reported by former NFL WR Brandon Stokley and has since been confirmed by Pro Football Talk. Denver's offense has been a major disappointment with OC Davis Webb calling plays over the first four weeks.

Nix struggled against a Chiefs defense that entered allowing the fewest points to QBs. He completed 25 of a season-high 42 passes for 214 yards and a TD, while adding 10 yards on the ground. It was his third finish outside QB1 range this season.

Nix completed 17 of 34 pass attempts for 186 yards and 2 TDs with an INT in the Broncos’ primetime win. He also added 7 yards and a TD on the ground on four attempts. The Broncos QB was held under 200 passing yards for the second time this season, but three total TDs powered him to his first QB1 finish of the season.

Broncos QB Bo Nix was a full participant in the first practice of training camp, according to insider Zac Stevens. It was Nix's first time in full-squad drills since his January ankle injury. He missed OTAs and was limited in 7-on-7 work in minicamp after undergoing a pair of surgeries. Nix hit WRs Jaylen Waddle, Pat Bryant, and Lil'Jordan Humphrey for TDs during Wednesday's red-zone period, per Stevens.

Broncos QB Bo Nix needed two surgeries on the right ankle he fractured in January's playoff win over the Bills. The first repaired the ankle and the second, which came in April, was to remove bone spurs, Nix said this week. He's been a limited participant in minicamp and is on track to be a full-go for training camp. Nix isn't worried about the ankle heading into the 2026 season.

Broncos HC Sean Payton said Saturday that he expects QB Bo Nix (ankle) to be cleared “full speed by training camp.” Nix should also participate in June minicamp.

Broncos QB Bo Nix underwent a second procedure on his surgically repaired right ankle, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The “clean-up” surgery was performed last week in Birmingham, AL, by Dr. Norman Waldrop III, who also handled the initial procedure on January 19.

The Dolphins are sending WR Jaylen Waddle to the Broncos, according to multiple reports. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that Miami will also send the 11th pick of Round 4 in this year's draft, while getting back first-, third-, and fourth-round picks this year. Each of the picks Denver's sending sits 30th in that round. Waddle spent his first five seasons with the Dolphins after arriving as the sixth-overall pick in 2021. He set a then-record for a rookie with 104 receptions in 2021 and topped out at 1,356 receiving yards in Year 2.

The Broncos have fired OC Joe Lombardi, NFL Network reports. Lombardi spent the past three seasons leading Denver's offense under HC Sean Payton and also spent 12 seasons under Payton in New Orleans. Denver's offense has been just fine under the Payton-Lombardi battery, ranking between 10th and 19th in points all three years. The Broncos did climb in total yards each season, from 26th to 19th to 10th. We'll see who's tabbed to replace Lombardi, but we wouldn't expect sweeping changes to the offense with Payton remaining at the helm.
