Broncos' Bo Nix takes huge step in becoming Sean Payton's new Drew Brees

Many have wondered if Bo Nix could become similar to Drew Brees with Sean Payton, and the second-year QB took a huge step for that this offseason. It just feels like Bo Nix gets it. Nix is a natural leader and seemed to almost immediately win over his teammates.

Not only that, but he also appears to be a top QB in the NFL already. Nix was an all-time great rookie QB in 2024. He accounted for 34 total touchdowns including 29 through the air. The expectations were shattered, and now some have wondered if Nix and the Broncos can compete with the Kansas City Chiefs for the AFC West title in 2025.
