The Denver Broncos secured their second consecutive win on Sunday, defeating the Las Vegas Raiders 29-19 at Allegiant Stadium. Rookie quarterback Bo Nix played a key role, completing 25 of 42 passes for 273 yards and two touchdowns. The 24-year-old continues to impress in his debut season as Denver’s starting quarterback.
Nix’s wife, Izzy Nix, traveled to Las Vegas to cheer him on. After the game, she posted on Instagram, sharing a three-word message to celebrate her husband’s standout performance: “his biggest fan!!!!!!!”
According to People, Bo and Izzy Nix first crossed paths in June 2020. At that time, Bo was the standout quarterback for the Auburn Tigers, and Izzy was a cheerleader for the team. Izzy graduated in 2022, while Bo transferred to Oregon for the 2022-23 season. The couple tied the knot on July 2, 2022, exactly two years after their initial meeting.
Bo Nix is enjoying a remarkable rookie season with the Broncos. According to NFL on CBS, the 12th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft currently leads all rookies in games with over 200 passing yards, 2+ touchdown passes, and zero interceptions, achieving this feat five times. This strong performance has made him a top contender for the Offensive Rookie of the Year award. Nix and the Broncos will face the Cleveland Browns on Monday, Nov. 2, as they aim to build on their 7-5 record.
