The ‘weekly quarterback dinner’ at the Denver Broncos took a twist this week, with Bo Nix and his teammates celebrating Christmas together with their wives and girlfriends.
Rookie Nix, Zach Wilson and Jarrett Stidham and their partners gathered together in matching pajamas for a night of presents and board games.
Izzy Nix, Bo’s wife, gave fans a peak inside the celebrations on her Instagram story.
She also shared pictures alongside Kennedy Stidham, Jarrett’s wife, and Wilson’s partner Nicolette Dellanno.
One snap, showing the couples each sat together, was captioned ‘QB Christmas card’ and another, of just the girls, was titled ‘best gals’.
The Broncos are 9-6 so far this season, a record that has them level with AFC West rivals LA Chargers in the AFC West. Nix and his Broncos team lost to the Chargers in their last game, going down 34-27 to Jim Harbaugh’s men.
Nix and the Broncos still have work to do to cement their place in the postseason, however.
This Saturday, they are in Cleveland to take on the Browns. Their divisional rivals have had an awful season and with a record of 3-12, their hopes of making the postseason have long gone.
After that, they host the Super Bowl champions in the Kansas City Chiefs.
But it might work out in Denver’s favor to play Andy Reid’s men for the last game in the regular season.
If the Chiefs beat the Steelers on Christmas Day, they will lock in their place as the AFC’s No. 1 seed – meaning Reid might be tempted to rest stars such as Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce for the trip to Colorado.
Nix has thrown 22 touchdowns against 11 interceptions through 15 games.
