In an introspective talk after Saturday’s training camp practice, Broncos quarterback Bo Nix detailed his “fear of not being ready.”

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix shares key takeaways from his offseason meeting with Drew Brees to grow in Sean Payton's offensive system.

Nix completed 66.3% of his passes last season and only took 24 sacks, impressive totals for his debut year. He'll look to improve on those totals in Year 2 as the Denver Broncos attempt to return to the playoffs after going 10-7 in 2024.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The comfort level of Bo Nix heading into Year 2 extends well beyond his knowledge of the playbook. The Denver Broncos QB feels more at home just about everywhere, including the locker room, the cafeteria and venturing around the city.

Mike McGlinchey said Bo Nix's confidence is contagious, and the QB's competitive nature is 'really impressive.'

Broncos quarterback Bo Nix was the last of six quarterbacks taken in the first round of the 2024 draft. After one season, he came in at No. 64 on the list of the NFL's top 100 players. He has much higher goals.

As he enters his second season as a starter, quarterback Bo Nix will still work to decipher defenses. He'll game-plan for various defensive coordinators. He'll celebrate wins and move forward from losses. "Honestly, I think that it'll be the same challenges," Nix said Saturday.

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix appreciates the recognition, but No. 64 is far too low for his "internal standard."

NFL Network's Cynthia Frelund says Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has taken "a big step forward" in terms of grasping head coach Sean Payton's offense.

Broussard goes on to agree that the No. 6 spot is a bit too high for the Broncos, pointing to the lack of offensive playmakers and suggesting that Bo Nix may be getting a little too much credit.

Sure, it's not entirely surprising that a quarterback wants to be the best. But for Denver Broncos' second-year QB Bo Nix to come out and say it so bluntly is still notable. Nix was asked this week about his No. 64 ranking on the NFL's top-100 player list, which is released every offseason.
