Bo Nix may finally be coming into his own, as he and the Denver Broncos blew out the 6-5 Atlanta Falcons, 38-6, on Saturday.
In the victory that increased the Broncos’ record to 6-5, Nix completed 28-of-33 passes for 307 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions.
The rookie out of Oregon joined head coach Sean Payton in his second season with the Broncos after being drafted 12th overall in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Nix struggled early in his debut season with the Broncos, posting a 59.1 percent completion rate over his first four games, throwing just one touchdown, and accumulating 660 total yards.
However, over the last four games, he has posted a 72.9 percent completion rate, throwing for 1,029 yards and nine touchdowns.
NFL fans have taken notice of his sudden surge in performance, flooding social media to praise the 24-year-old.
