Broncos QB Bo Nix earns new ranking on NFL Top 100 list
Bo Nix is moving up. At least on the NFL Top 100 list.
After being No. 64 in last year’s list, the Broncos quarterback was unveiled Monday as No. 59 on the 2026 list, compiled by a vote of NFL players.
“Bo is a gamer,” Broncos teammate Pat Surtain II said in the NFL video release.
In his second season, Nix in 2025 threw for 3,931 yards with 25 touchdowns and helped lead the Broncos to the AFC Championship Game. But he wasn’t able to play in the 10-7 loss to New England after having suffered a broken right ankle late in the 33-30 win over Buffalo in a divisional playoff game.
Nix returned from two surgeries to be a limited participant in a mandatory minicamp last month. Denver coach Sean Payton has said Nix will be at full strength for training camp. Rookies report for camp at Broncos Park on Wednesday and veterans on July 28.
“He’s a dog,” Raiders defensive end and AFC West rival Maxx Crosby said. “I’ll give it to him.”
Nix becomes the third Denver player so far to be named to the Top 100 list, following wide receiver Courtland Sutton at No. 68 and defensive lineman Zach Allen at No. 73. More Broncos players are still to be unveiled, including stars Pat Surtain II at cornerback and Nik Bonitto at outside linebacker.
“That fourth quarter magic, man. He’s a freak of nature,” Broncos offensive tackle Garett Bolles said.
