Broncos Quarterback Bo Nix Keeps His Number from Past Seasons and other Players Adjust Numbers accordingly
Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has decided to keep his number from his college and high school days when he joins the NFL. The No. 10 jersey holds great significance to Nix, and he will continue to wear it for the Broncos.
This move means that other quarterbacks on the Broncos’ roster will have to switch numbers. Zach Wilson, who was initially assigned the No. 10 jersey when he was traded to the Broncos from the Jets, has agreed to give it up for Nix. Wilson will now wear No. 4, which was previously worn by Jarrett Stidham in Denver. Stidham will now be wearing No. 8 for this season.
In addition to Nix and Wilson’s new numbers, the Broncos have also announced jersey numbers for their other draft picks. OLB Jonah Elliss will wear No. 52, WR Troy Franklin will wear No. 16, CB Kris Abrams-Draine will wear No. 31, RB Audric Estime will wear No. 37, WR Devaughn Vele will wear No. 81, and G Nick Gargiulo will wear No. 66
