Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix is poised for a significant second season, and his wife, Izzy Nix, is clearly enthusiastic about the direction of the team. Following the Broncos’ recent decision to extend wide receiver Courtland Sutton with a four-year, $92 million contract, Izzy Nix has voiced her support for the burgeoning quarterback-WR duo.
Izzy Nix, who has amassed 49.7K followers on Instagram, showcased her excitement for Nix’s performance during training camp. The post, shared on the Broncos’ official Instagram account, featured a photo of Nix alongside Sutton.
“Oh, hi,” she wrote, accompanied by a teary-eyed emoji. The accompanying image captured a candid moment of the couple together. “Year 2 @bonix10,” she added.
Nix’s visible support comes as Sutton, a seven-year veteran since being drafted in 2018, secured a lucrative contract extending through 2028, averaging $23 million annually with $41 million guaranteed. Sutton’s impressive 2024 campaign, which included 81 receptions for 1,081 receiving yards and eight touchdowns, contributed significantly to this contract extension.
Head coach Sean Payton expressed confidence in Sutton’s readiness. “He’s real smart,” Payton stated. “He’s gotten 1-on-1, 7-on-7, team reps. He’s just being smart.”
Izzy Nix’s enthusiastic backing underscores the Broncos’ strategy of building a stable and reliable offensive foundation around Nix. The partnership between the young quarterback and experienced Sutton represents a key element in Denver’s aspirations for continued success.
