ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Following a four-touchdown performance against the Packers, Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has been named a FedEx Air & Ground Player of the Week.
Nix threw for 302 yards, four touchdowns and a 134.7 passer rating without turning the ball over or being sacked in the 34-26 win.
The second-year quarterback has now earned the award three times in his career, as he was honored twice last year after wins over the Falcons and Chiefs. Peyton Manning is the only quarterback in franchise history to win the award more times.
In Sunday's win, Nix threw touchdown passes to four different receivers and completed 8-of-12 passes of at least 10 air yards for 168 yards, two touchdowns and a 149.3 passer rating.
With the victory, Nix tied Andrew Luck, Dak Prescott and Ben Roethlisberger for the second-most victories by a quarterback in his first two seasons.
