Nix signed a four-year contract worth a reported $18.613 million. The contract is fully guaranteed and includes a team option for a fifth season.

Nix hit the practice field for the first time for the Broncos on Friday at Denver’s rookie minicamp. He wore the No. 10 jersey, just as he did at Pinson Valley, Auburn and Oregon.
