Bo Nix was named the starter. @Broncos …He will be the first rookie QB since John Elway to start in Denver in Week 1. No pressure!

Broncos coach Sean Payton officially announced that Bo Nix will be Denver’s starting quarterback. The 12th overall pick led seven drives in the preseason, with the Broncos scoring on six of them.
Nicks also played 61 games in college, so he’s always ready to go.
