Mandatory Credit: Ron Chenoy-Imagn Images Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix recently underwent a successful pre-planned cleanup procedure on his injured right ankle, NFL Network reported on Tuesday.
The 26-year-old sustained a season-ending fractured right ankle moments while leading Denver to a win over the Buffalo Bills in an AFC divisional playoff game. Nix underwent surgery two days later in Alabama.
Nix, heading into his third pro season, is expected to be slowed into action throughout Denver's voluntary offseason programs and OTAs shortly after, per the report. The Broncos plan take it "very easy" with the quarterback, according to NFL Network.
"He had a recheck that was scheduled," Denver coach Sean Payton said Saturday. "He's doing great. We're excited about his progress. These guys will be coming in here. ... He's here."
