Broncos QB Bo Nix drafts stadium food on 'The Bread Basket'
Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has had a busy offseason, after having a historic rookie season. Some of his offseason activities have included several interview opportunities, where Broncos Country has gotten to learn more about their franchise signal caller.
Nix recently drafted his favorite stadium foods on "The Bread Basket." Needless to say, there were a few surprises on his list!
Tops on Nix's list was popcorn, calling the snack a "safe play."
Nix followed up popcorn with Dippin' Dots, then used his third round pick for pretzels. Nix vigorously defended the pretzel, saying that it was a favorite of his wife Izzy and his parents. "He's got experience; he's been doing it a long time. In the third round, I think it's a steal," said Nix.
Nix wrapped up his five-pick draft with two beverages: a frozen strawberry lemonade and a Coke.
Nix did the interview with breadbasket303, who countered with five picks of their own: hot dogs, beer, nachos, pizza and finishing with cotton candy.
Nix also blindly ranked six characters who he could see playing quarterback. "He commands a room, but you have to wonder how big of an arm does this guy have," Nix said of Spiderman, before ranking him at No. 3. Nix rightly named Tom Brady at No. 1, Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic at No. 2, Santa Claus at 4, Mario at 5 and comedian Kevin Hart last.
Nix's position as QB1 has been cemented going into his sophomore campaign under head coach Sean Payton. With no fear of losing the starting job to Peter Parker or St. Nick, Nix looks to lead the Broncos back into NFL relevancy again.

Russell Wilson's Four-Word Message Catches Attention on Wednesday
Russell Wilson's Four-Word Message Catches Attention on Wednesday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. There may not be a whole lot of excitement surrounding the New York Giants these days. But there is an opportunity for them to lay down some building blocks to create the foundation of a winning team that will prosper not too long from now. Advertisement They brought in veteran quarterback Russell Wilson, a 10-time Pro Bowler, and while he won't be manning the position for that long, he could serve as a serviceable bridge to the Giants' next franchise signal-caller. He posted an image of himself during an offseason workout on his Instagram account with the caption "Hard Work Pays Off," and fans reacted in a positive manner. "Dangeruss," one fan wrote. "My QB1💙❤️," another fan wrote. "I love you Russ," a third user wrote. "Yessss 🔥🔥👏👏," a fourth fan wrote. "Russell Wilson fan ONLY!!" a fifth user wrote. "Cook," another user wrote. Wilson played his first 10 seasons in the NFL with the Seattle Seahawks, and he brought them a Super Bowl championship in the 2013 campaign, which was just his second in the league. Advertisement But with the team going stale, he was traded to the Denver Broncos three years ago. Plenty tabbed the Broncos as instant Super Bowl contenders, but Wilson's production dropped sharply, and the Broncos failed to make the playoffs in 2022 and 2023. He was able to take the Pittsburgh Steelers to the playoffs last season, but he clearly wasn't in their future plans, paving the way for him to head to New York. New York Giants quarterback Russell Penner-Imagn Images New York has wide receiver Malik Nabers, who had a stellar rookie campaign last year. It also has rookie QB Jaxson Dart, who the team is hoping can be groomed into a legitimate starter for years to come. Advertisement It will be difficult for the Giants to claim a playoff spot with several NFC teams looking more talented than they were in 2024. But at this point, improving on the 3-14 record they had last year would have to be considered progress.

Phil Gould calls out dressing room claims at the Broncos after players hit back
NRL supremo Phil Gould has rubbished suggestions the Broncos players look like they are lacking effort having backed Michael Maguire to make the 'mental' adjustments to turn things around. Gould watched Daly Cherry-Evans and the Manly Sea Eagles destroy the Broncos last Saturday as they put 34 on Brisbane in a dismal display. Despite boasting representative players such as Payne Haas, Patrick Carrigan, Reece Walsh and Adam Reynolds in their squad, the Broncos sit in 12th on the ladder. The defeat to the Sea Eagles also marked their sixth in seven games as the playing group look bereft of ideas out on the field when things are going against them. While Maguire has moved to make selection changes this week with Carrigan moving back to lock, the coach is facing scrutiny after a strong start to the season. Both Ben Ikin and Darren Lockyer made telling comments about Maguire's position at the club after his latest loss piled on the pressure. Although Gould has slammed suggestions the players are not on board with Maguire's style. Speaking on his Wide World of Sports podcast Six Tackles with Gus, the Bulldogs general manager feels the players are trying too hard during their form slump and overplaying their hand. "When you see a side like that, all of sudden it's the players are off with the coach, the coach has lost the dressing room... that's rubbish, I don't see that at all," he said. "That's what people saw about any club struggling when they expected better. I think people get influenced by the scoreboard a lot when they critique these performances. "I'm watching the game and I'm not seeing a lack of effort, I'm not seeing a lack of care. I certainly can't label them with that. In fact, I think sometimes they are their own worst enemy because they are over trying." Gould feels the players are trying hard, but lack cohesion and a clear plan when they find themselves down on the scoreboard. Although the former NSW coach believes if Maguire can find the switch, it could see a massive change in the powerful Broncos side stacked with talent. Gould feels it isn't due to a lack of physicality or skill that has seen the Broncos lose six of their last seven games. But rather the change in momentum will come internally with Maguire needing to reframe the mindset of the playing group that he has inherited. And he also feels the players need to change their view on how the season will turn around. "I think the problems with them mainly are mental...I think these are things they just need to settle down, it is not going to be solved overnight," he added. "They just need to take a breath of fresh air, sit and relax, and get into that room full of mirrors where they can all take accountability for what's going wrong and sort it out." RELATED: Family detail as Craig Bellamy tipped to make shock switch to coach side Cameron Smith's truth bomb after Queensland coach accused of 'weak' act Both Kotoni Staggs and captain Adam Reynolds have slapped down the suggestion there is player unrest at the club after the weekend's loss. Speculation was mounting Maguire's rigged training regime had taken its toll on some of the players. This prompted Penrith legend Greg Alexander to rip into the reports. "Don't let me think that Brisbane players are whingeing because Michael Maguire is too hard on them. Cry me a river, you little wusses," Alexander said on SEN Radio this week. "If that is true, none of them deserve to be playing NRL. "I can't believe it's true because I can't believe that experienced NRL players would be bitching and whingeing because Michael Maguire keeps them there too long." However, Reynolds led the charge and dismissed such claims heading into round 15. "It's easy for the outside noise to obviously try and tear the team apart and the coaching staff," Reynolds said on Channel Nine. "Look, we're working hard, we're just like any other team who train hard. Everyone can write what they want to write, but internally we know we're capable of doing some great things here, and Madge is the right man leading us forward."

Broncos Cut Ties With Former Raiders TE After Failed Physical
Broncos Cut Ties With Former Raiders TE After Failed Physical originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Las Vegas Raiders have had little success over the last several years, but they have still had an influx of offensive talent in recent seasons. Specifically, the tight end position has been bolstered with the additions of 2023 second-round pick Michael Mayer and 2024 first-rounder Brock Bowers. Advertisement While Mayer has been merely solid through two NFL campaigns, Bowers broke multiple records during his first year. He earned Pro Bowl honors and landed on the All-Pro First-Team during his rookie year. As a result of these two talented young players entering the fold, the team parted ways with tight end Cole Fotheringham at the end of last season. Former Las Vegas Raiders TE Cole Fotheringham (85).Lucas Peltier-Imagn Images In early May, Fotheringham landed on his feet as he signed with the Raiders' bitter AFC West rival, the Denver Broncos. There, he was set to compete for tight end reps with Evan Engram and Adam Trautman under head coach Sean Payton. However, on Tuesday, the Broncos signed undrafted free agent tight end Cade Prieskorn, who played college football at Memphis and Ole Miss. In a corresponding move, the team announced that they had released Fotheringham with an injury designation. Advertisement Fotheringham was originally added to the Raiders' roster ahead of the 2022 NFL season, but he had a hard time finding his way onto the field. He only played in two games for the Silver and Black, and caught just one pass for six yards. Now, he will look to find new life with another NFL franchise. Because head coach Pete Carroll and general manager John Spytek were not in charge when Fotheringham was released by the Raiders, perhaps a reunion could be in the cards, but earning playing time will still be a tall task in Las Vegas.
