What happened: Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix is actively undergoing ankle rehabilitation before team practices. Head coach Sean Payton noted Nix was observing recent sessions and remains optimistic that the quarterback could return to participate during the upcoming mandatory minicamp.

Why it matters: The development is a positive sign for the Broncos' offense, following Nix's scheduled ankle re-check in April. Having their starting quarterback available for mandatory minicamp would allow Denver to maintain offensive momentum and build chemistry ahead of training camp.

What to watch: The team will continue to monitor Nix's progress through the remainder of voluntary OTAs. His official participation level will be determined when the Broncos convene for mandatory minicamp in the coming weeks.
