Bo Nix Could Be Poised For Big Primetime Game

The Denver Broncos will face the Washington Commanders for a Sunday Night Football matchup. Usually, it would be an exciting matchup between two young first-round quarterbacks from the 2024 NFL Draft class.

But with Jayden Daniels set to miss yet another game with an elbow injury, all eyes will be set on Bo Nix. And, as reported by Broncos insider Zac Stevens on X, that might be a good thing.

Nix has thrown at least one touchdown pass in four consecutive primetime games. He also has at least 250 passing yards in three of his four past primetime games.

The second-year player out of Oregon hasn’t looked as sharp in his sophomore season. He’s had some major issues with accuracy, and the Broncos’ running game and defense have done most of the heavy lifting for Sean Payton’s team.

That being said, Nix’s physical attributes, athleticism, and arm strength are top-tier, and it might be just a matter of time before he figures things out again. He already showed that last season.

As for the Commanders, they’ve fallen back to Earth after an impressive campaign in 2024. They’ve had to face a much tougher schedule this season, and with Daniels missing that much time, it’s been an uphill battle for Dan Quinn’s aging team.

Daniels has all the talent in the world, but durability is already a major concern. Hopefully, he will be back to full strength next season and give the fans many more epic duels with his fellow classmates, as the quarterback class of 2024 might go down as one of the best ever.
