The Denver Broncos faced off against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday and ultimately suffered a tough loss. However, the game wasn't decided by just one play or mistake. While the Broncos couldn't afford to give the ball away to the high-powered Ravens offense, that's exactly what happened on their first possession. Rookie quarterback Bo Nix's first pass of the day was intercepted by Ravens safety Ar'Darius Washington after it bounced off receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey's hands. Humphrey took responsibility for the mistake, acknowledging that he should have used two hands to catch the ball.
This wasn't the first time that a turnover on a play involving Humphrey resulted in a negative outcome for the Broncos. Last week, he fumbled on a catch that led to a touchdown for the Carolina Panthers. However, it's worth noting that Nix's interceptions have mostly occurred in the team's losses, while he has thrown more touchdowns in their wins. Despite these mistakes, Humphrey's teammate Courtland Sutton had a standout performance with his second consecutive 100-yard receiving game and even threw a touchdown pass to Nix on a trick play.
Sutton's success can be attributed to his hard work and dedication, according to Nix. He also praised the receiver for taking ownership and showing passion on the field. As a leader and captain of the team, Sutton sets a good example for his teammates and Nix respects him for it. In terms of inactives and practice squad elevations, the Broncos had a fairly normal lineup with the addition of fullback Michael Burton and practice squad inside linebacker Kwon Alexander. However, they were missing key players such as quarterback Zach Wilson and safety P.J. Locke.
Despite the loss, the Broncos will continue to work hard and improve as a team. If you want to stay updated on all things Broncos, be sure to sign up for the Broncos Insider for all the latest NFL analysis.
