After leading his Denver Broncos to a narrow win over the Carolina Panthers, quarterback Bo Nix was sporting a shirt that referenced the iconic Michael Jordan movie Space Jam.

Speaking to reporters after the game, he explained that he grew up on the movie, saying, “It’s a great movie. We were kids growing up; that was a cool movie. I feel like everybody’s seen it.”

Nix was born a little over three years after Space Jam came out on Nov. 15, 1996. Still, it sounds like he grew up watching the iconic basketball movie.

Jordan led the original Space Jam movie, playing himself. He is brought out of retirement by Looney Tunes characters to play against invading aliens. A sequel, A New Legacy, was released in 2021 and starred LeBron James.

The Broncos took a commanding 10-0 lead against the Panthers in their Week 9 matchup. The Panthers would retake the lead in the third quarter before going down 26-14 in the fourth.

Somehow, the Panthers were able to claw their way back into it, scoring a touchdown and forcing a three-and-out to earn a chance to win the game. After a 20-yard pass by Bryce Young, he fumbled the following play, giving the Broncos the win.

Nix finished with 237 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. He also fumbled once, but it was recovered by his team. He continues playing well down the stretch, leading Denver to close wins.

So far in 2026, Nix has passed for 1,730 yards, 11 touchdowns, and four interceptions. He has also rushed for 116 yards and two touchdowns.

The Broncos are red-hot and on a five-game win streak heading into their bye. It has been a major turnaround after being blown out by the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 1. They will play the Las Vegas Raiders after their bye for the first time this season.
