Former NFL QB Phil Simms: Bo Nix will 'adapt to the NFL really fast'

Bo Nix's age was a negative and a positive leading up to the 2024 NFL draft. The critics suggested Nix's age (25) and 61 starts in college translates to quarterback already near his ceiling in the NFL. Others counter that Nix's age and experience will help him make a rapid transition to the next level. The Denver Broncos adopted the latter philosophy, selecting the former Oregon Ducks' star with the No. 12 overall pick of the draft.
