    Bo Nix didn't care about the football from his first (preseason) touchdown in the NFL

    Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix looked sharp in his NFL debut against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, going 15-of-21 passing for 125 yards with one touchdown and no turnovers.

    In the second quarter, Nix threw a one-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Marvin Mims. That marked the quarterback’s first touchdown in the NFL, albeit in a preseason game. Nix apparently didn’t give much thought to it.

    “I tried giving Bo Nix the ball afterwards but I think he gave it back to the refs,” Mims said after the game. “So he is waiting for that a first regular season (touchdown), I guess.”

    A Broncos fan posted a great video of the play on Reddit that shows Nix tossing the ball to the officials after the play:

    “It was a nice play by Marv,” Nix said after the game. “He did a good job of getting to the corner, and we executed well. We’ve been practicing and repping that play quite a lot, and they bumped it off and had some space, and we were able to get a touchdown.”

    First touchdown in the NFL? No big deal. Nix has more important touchdowns on his agenda. Bring on the regular season.
