Overview
- Payton said Saturday at rookie minicamp there is a good chance Bo Nix takes part in June sessions, with the quarterback expected to be full speed by July.
- Nix had an anticipated ankle clean-up in late April after his January surgery, which Payton and prior reporting described as routine rather than a setback.
- The Broncos plan to limit his workload during OTAs and minicamp, which run June 2–4 and 8–11, followed by mandatory minicamp June 16–18.
- Jarrett Stidham and Sam Ehlinger will handle spring snaps while the team weighs short-term depth after tryouts that included E.J. Warner and Nathan Peterman.
- Nix fractured his right ankle on Jan. 17 in the playoff win over Buffalo and missed the AFC title game, and an early return to on-field work would help him sync with new play-caller Davis Webb and new receiver Jaylen Waddle before training camp.
