The Denver Broncos revealed that quarterback Bo Nix will be keeping his number from his college and high school days, wearing the No. 10 jersey for the team. Nix’s decision to stick with his familiar number means that the other quarterbacks on the Broncos’ roster will be changing numbers. Initially, Zach Wilson was assigned No. 10 after being traded to the Broncos from the Jets, but he graciously gave up the number for Nix. Wilson will now wear No. 4, previously worn by Jarrett Stidham before he switched to No. 8 for the upcoming season.
In addition to Nix, Wilson, and Stidham, the Broncos also revealed the jersey numbers for their other draft picks. Outside linebacker Jonah Elliss will wear No. 52, wide receiver Troy Franklin will wear No. 16, cornerback Kris Abrams-Draine will wear No. 31, running back Audric Estime will wear No. 37, wide receiver Devaughn Vele will wear No. 81, and guard Nick Gargiulo will wear No. 66. Each player will now have their respective numbers as they begin their journey with the Denver Broncos.
