The Denver Broncos have announced that quarterback Bo Nix will be keeping his number from his college and high school days when he wears the No. 10 jersey in the NFL. This number holds significance to Nix, and he will continue to wear it for the Broncos.
As a result of Nix taking the No. 10 jersey, other quarterbacks on the Broncos’ roster had to switch numbers. Zach Wilson, who was initially assigned the No. 10 jersey when he was traded to the Broncos from the Jets, 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.
The Broncos 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
