Broncos' Bo Nix looks more comfortable heading into 2nd season and elusive familiarity a big reason
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Bo Nix looks a lot more comfortable than he did a year ago at this time, and not just because he's no longer a wide-eyed rookie trying to carve out some snaps behind Jarrett Stidham and Zach Wilson. This marks the first time since he was attending Pinson Valley High School in Alabama that the Broncos' second-year starting quarterback heads into a season with the same offensive play-caller and quarterback coach.

NFL free agency: Zach Wilson leaves Broncos for 1-year deal with Dolphins
Former Denver Broncos backup quarterback Zach Wilson has agreed to terms on a one-year, $6 million deal with the Miami Dolphins worth up to $10 million, according to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter. Wilson, 25, originally entered the NFL as a No. 2 overall pick out of BYU with the New York Jets in 2021. He struggled in New York, going 12-21 as a starter and was eventually replaced by Aaron Rodgers. The Jets traded Wilson and a seventh-round draft pick to the Broncos last spring in exchange for a sixth-round pick. Wilson ended up serving as Denver's third-string QB last fall behind starter Bo Nix and primary backup Jarrett Stidham. Wilson was a healthy scratch in 2024 and did not appear in any regular season games with the Broncos. Before landing in Denver, he completed 57% of his passes for 6,293 yards with 23 touchdowns against 25 interceptions in three years (34 games) in New York. Still a young QB, Wilson has upside and he will get a chance to serve as the primary backup in Miami after serving as QB3 with the Broncos last season. Denver, meanwhile, has re-signed Jarrett Stidham to serve as the team's No. 2 QB again in 2025. We are tracking all of the team's free agency additions (and losses) on Broncos Wire.
