"Absolutely not," Nix said. "I'm going to roll (out), I'm going to be as athletic as I can be. ... It's a strength of ours and so we've got to use our strengths. For me that's when I feel at my best, that's when I feel free."
STACKED’s take
Nix will fully utilize mobility post-ankle surgery; Payton calls scrambling ability a superpower.
Bo Nix will not hesitate to scramble and use designed runs despite his surgically repaired ankle, stating "Absolutely not" when asked if the injury would limit his desire to scramble. Nix emphasized that mobility is "a strength of ours and so we've got to use our strengths" and that "when I'm moving around, it's a good thing." Coach Sean Payton called Nix's ability to extend plays in the passing game with his mobility as well as escape sacks "one of his superpowers." Nix rushed for 356 yards last season (third on the Broncos) and scored five rushing touchdowns (second on the team). Payton noted that avoiding sacks is analytically critical: "when you take a sack, just do the analytics on it, getting points on that drive or likelihood to kick a field goal, it all drops dramatically." The Broncos had the lowest sacks per pass attempt in the league last season at 3.75%.
