Denver Broncos quarterbacks Bo Nix, Jarrett Stidham and Zach Wilson decided to spend the holiday season together with their partners.
Heading into training camp, veterans Jarrett Stidham, Zach Wilson and rookie Bo Nix (the No. 12 pick of the draft) had a three-man battle for the Broncos’ starting quarterback job. The gig was ultimately won by the rookie out of Oregon.
Sometimes, the nature of the QB competition can cause some rift between teammates. Steve Young and Joe Montana weren’t exactly best friends during their tenures in San Francisco, and Ben Roethlisberger had no interest in mentoring Mason Rudolph after the Pittsburgh Steelers used a 2018 third-round pick on him.
But it looks like the bond is awfully strong between Stidham, Wilson and Bo Nix. The quarterbacks, along with their wives and girlfriends, decided to spend the holiday season together with matching pajamas:

The 24-year-old Bo Nix is having a phenomenal rookie season in Mile High City, completing 64.3 percent of pass attempts for 3,235 yards, 22 touchdowns and only 11 interceptions in 15 games.
Nix has already guided Denver (9-6) to their first winning season since 2016. They can clinch the franchise’s first playoff berth since 2015 with a victory against the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday, or against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 18.
Broncos Made The Right Decision With Bo Nix
Some questioned the Broncos’ decision to release Russell Wilson in the offseason. For one, he had a stellar bounce-back season under Sean Payton and nearly guided them to the playoffs a year ago. On top of that, Wilson cost them a whopping $85 million in dead money.
But it’s obvious that the Broncos knew what they were doing with Nix all along. Payton was adamant that he was the quarterback they wanted, and Nix’s production up to this point speaks for itself.
