Bo Nix's Ankle Surgery, Broncos Hunt Vet QB

0:00On April 29, Denver Broncos quarterback Beau Nix just had a quick ankle procedure last week and it went smooth as planned. He's still on pace to be full-go by training camp, even after breaking that ankle three months back in the playoff win over Buffalo. The injury hit during the AFC division around, leading to surgery and about 12 weeks on the shelf. Team brass has been positive, saying he's beating expectations in rehab. General manager George Payton even told folks back in March that Nix would crush organized team activities starting in June. But they're playing it safe with his off-season workouts to avoid any setbacks. Now here's the twist, right around the procedure news. Reports dropped that Denver's hunting a veteran quarterback for a tryout at rookie minicamp. Their top guys like Nix, Jarrett Stidham and Sam Ellinger can't play in it since they're not rookies. That vet could stick through summer, battling for backup spots if Nix sits more. Names floating include Aaron Rogers, Tyra Taylor, even old Broncos like Russell Wilson.
