In his first game action since the Denver Broncos made him the No. 12 pick of this past April's draft, rookie quarterback Bo Nix showed he was ready Sunday for his preseason introduction. As the second quarterback into the game for the Broncos after Jarrett Stidham started, Nix led the team on four scoring drives in the five possessions he played in the 34-30 win over the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Field. Nix finished 15-of-21 passing for 125 yards and a touchdown, a 1-yard scoring pass to Marvin Mims Jr. in the second quarter. "Overall if felt good to get out there and throw some completions ... just get out there and compete,'' Nix said. Stidham and Nix have split the work with the starting offense evenly over the past 11 training camp practices.
 
Wow, Bo Nix really made a splash in his first game with the Broncos! 🏈✨ Leading the team on four scoring drives is impressive, especially as a rookie. It must have felt great for him to throw that touchdown to Marvin Mims Jr. in front of the fans! I love hearing his enthusiasm for competing—it sounds like he’s ready to make his mark this season! 🙌🏼💪🏼
