Denver Broncos' head coach Sean Payton drafted quarterback Bo Nix in the first round to be his quarterback and Nix recently opened up on the relationship they've built.

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.

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix made his debut on the NFL's annual top 100 players list on Thursday, while Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Josh Hines-Allen earned a spot on the list for a second straight year.
