Former NFL quarterback Mike Vick was impressed by what he saw from Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix during the 2024 season.
“I think Bo Nix is a great quarterback,” Vick said at the Super Bowl, via KOA Radio. “You know, when you’re under a guy like Sean Payton, you’re [going] to get a lot of offensive concepts that just make sense to you. Sean understands the game, knows the game, so he gets to pass that down to a guy like Bo.
“Bo, to his credit, has a lot of experience as well. He had a lot of collegiate snaps and has seen a lot of defenses. So he understands football and knows how to talk it.”
Vick went on to note that Nix is able to process the game and break it down quickly, aiding in his success.

Nix completed 66.3% of his passes last season for 3,775 yards with 29 touchdown passes against 12 interceptions while adding 430 rushing yards, plus four rushing scores and one receiving touchdown.
Denver went 10-7 and reached the postseason in Nix’s first year, and Vick believes the young QB has a bright future as a pro.
