Bo Nix didn’t just play in every game his rookie season.
He played through injury, too.
The Denver quarterback sustained three transverse process fractures in his back during Denver’s Nov. 24 win at Las Vegas, he said Monday after the Broncos’ season ended.
Nix said he got “twisted up” during the game against Las Vegas and sustained the fractures.
He finished the game and then played against Cleveland on Monday Night Football in early December before the team’s bye week. Nix was listed that week as a limited participant in practice due to a back issue.
“That week got treatment, made it through that week,” Nix explained. “Monday Night Football, it was a stretch that we were all banged up and I wasn’t going to miss the first Monday night game. I got treatment on it and then I was fortunate we had an off week that next week.

During the Vegas game, the cameras caught Nix wincing and grabbing at his lower back after throwing while moving backward with defensive end Maxx Crosby in his face.
One potential ramification of the injury: Nix used his legs less in that span. He ran just one time for 5 yards against the Raiders and then three times for 4 yards against the Browns.
