A New Voice for Bo Nix, but Sean Payton Still Holds the Broncos' Play Call Sheet
Davis Webb will call plays for the Broncos as Sean Payton stays on the sideline, with Bo Nix seeking quicker starts after 8 late-game wins.
- Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton has relinquished play-calling duties to offensive coordinator Davis Webb for the upcoming season. The 31-year-old Webb will now manage the offense for the Super Bowl contender.
- Payton transferred play-calling responsibilities after determining he was sometimes slow getting plays in, which rushed quarterback Nix. This change aims to eliminate Denver's slow starts and transition Nix into a consistent four-quarter performer.
- Nix praised Webb's communication style, noting he provides necessary reminders without over-complicating. The quarterback views the transition as the natural next step after spending two seasons establishing a foundation with Payton.
- Payton will collaborate on game plans and hold a call sheet on the sidelines. Webb emphasized the benefit of facing defensive coordinator Vance Joseph's scheme all summer, providing high-level preparation.
- The Broncos open the season Monday night at Kansas City, facing a Chiefs team they dethroned as AFC West champions last year. This matchup marks the first test for Webb's play-calling.
