Sean Payton shares the one key Bo Nix stat that truly convinced the Broncos he was their quarterback of the future.

Bo Nix made several standout throws Monday and orchestrated the Broncos’ offense near-flawlessly in a late two-minute situational, but he also threw two more picks.

Nix was the fifth quarterback selected in the first round, going 12th overall to the Denver Broncos after Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Michael Penix Jr., and J.J. McCarthy. Yet Broncos head coach Sean Payton believes he may have landed the best of the bunch.
