Sean Payton Addresses Bo Nix as Preseason Starter After Loss to Packers
Broncos coach Sean Payton responded to whether he plans to play Bo Nix again in the preseason after a loss to the Packers.
Bo Nix made a preseason return to the football field after recovering from a fractured right ankle earlier in the season. During a game against the Green Bay Packers, Nix completed 6 out of 9 passes for 76 yards and scored a touchdown, achieving a 129.9 passer rating. Despite this performance, the Denver Broncos lost the match 33-13.
Head coach Sean Payton was cautious about Nix's playing status ahead of their next preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings, stating that he didn't want to rush decisions and would wait until reviewing the tape to determine the best course of action. Payton expressed disappointment with the overall team performance, pointing out various aspects where they fell short, including penalties, kickoff returns, rushing numbers, and more.
The Broncos are set to face the Kansas City Chiefs in their first regular-season game on Monday Night Football on September 14.
