Bo Nix was asked if he would accept to be a reserve

The Denver Broncos may have finally found their man.

Since Peyton Manning left Mile High, they have struggled to generate any sort of production at the quarterback position and are hoping Bo Nix can finally put an end to their revolving door.

Sean Payton and his coaching staff were reportedly very fond of him throughout the NFL Draft process, and given his experience at two different college programs, most people assumed he would start right away.

At this point, however, it seems highly unlikely that the Broncos won’t bring him in right away.

There have been a lot of positive reviews written about him during training camp, and it’s not like they have much of a choice at the moment, or better ones.

It won’t be long before Sean Payton announces his starting quarterback. It would be surprising if that starter wasn’t their first pick in the draft.
