The offensive coordinator said there are times Nix could slide feet first instead of diving forward but added: “I don’t think he’s done anything reckless. I’ve been very pleased.” If the Broncos are going to mitigate the intense pressure the Jets’ pass rush has produced this season, Nix’s running ability may have to play a role.
