The Denver Broncos won in Week 2 after a tough start, overcoming a 3-13 deficit to beat the Jacksonville Jaguars 20-13.

Jaylen Waddle played a major role in the comeback after a quiet debut for the Broncos. The wide receiver caught 8 passes for 138 yards, including a 49-yard reception that helped set up Denver's opening points.

After the game, Waddle spoke to reporters about playing with Bo Nix. He praised the quarterback's ability to remain composed when the pressure is on:

“Man, Bo's a dawg, man. He's never shy of any moment. He stayed calm, stayed poised. To be a guy in his third year, that's—you know, really good traits to have. Man, Bo's just—he's phenomenal, man.”

Waddle's comments came after Nix helped Denver complete its comeback. The quarterback also delivered several key throws during the second half.

Bo Nix completed 22 of 31 passes for 288 yards, one touchdown and one interception, while Jaylen Waddle finished with 8 receptions for 138 yards.

Denver trailed 3-13 early in the third quarter before scoring 17 unanswered points. Nix threw a seven-yard touchdown pass to Nate Adkins before Jonah Coleman scored the go-ahead touchdown.

This performance gave Denver momentum heading into its Week 3 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams.
