Bo Nix prepares for 2026 season opener against Kansas City Chiefs

Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix is entering the 2026 NFL season healthy after a broken ankle ended his campaign in the divisional round last year. The Broncos start their season in nine days with a road game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football. Nix finished last season with an 87.8 passer rating, a mark that currently ranks him behind several of the quarterbacks on Denver's upcoming schedule. The Broncos schedule features two matchups each against AFC West rivals the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles Chargers. Denver is coming off a 14-3 record and an AFC West title from the previous season. Nix and the team aim to build on that performance, with the roster now shifting its focus toward the season opener.
