Bo Nix: Setting the Record Straight on His Ankle

Bo Nix, the quarterback for the Denver Broncos, recently addressed some confusion about his ankle injury. He made it clear that he does not believe his ankle was predisposed to breaking. This statement came after head coach Sean Payton mentioned that doctors had said Nix was at higher risk for such an injury. Nix spoke to reporters for the first time since his surgery. He explained that there might have been a misunderstanding in how Payton shared the doctors' findings. Nix also mentioned that he had broken his ankle before, both in high school and college. However, he did not think it was appropriate for Payton to bring up his past surgeries.Despite these setbacks, Nix does not see himself as injury-prone. He pointed out that he had played in over 60 games straight without missing any. This track record gives him confidence that his injury will not affect his future playing career. Nix also shared that he does not expect this injury to impact his offseason preparation. He plans to start his workouts at the same time as he would have without the injury. He is optimistic about making a full recovery and being ready for the 2026 season.
