When the Denver Broncos drafted Bo Nix, the No. 1 aspect that made him an attractive grab for Sean Payton was his ability to read defenses and process well. In his final season at Oregon, he set the NCAA record for completion percentage in a season (77.4%), and for someone like Payton, a smart quarterback is a great quarterback.
So far, Nix is a strong contender for NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year. He’s passed for 2,548 yards, 16 touchdowns and only six interceptions. And it appears he’s adapting well, completing just under 65% of his passes. His play has caught the eye of former NFL quarterback Chase Daniels, who has loved how the rookie quarterback has broken down defenses as of late.
In a 14-minute video, Daniels breaks down Nix’s play against the Las Vegas Raiders last week. Click the YouTube clip below to check out Daniels’ review of Nix in the entire clip.
