Denver Broncos Set Team Record in Colorado: Quarterback Nix's 62-Yard Touchdown Run, with Tight End Trautman's Decoy Play
The Denver Broncos of Denver, Denver County, Colorado, beat the Arizona Cardinals 30-16 in a game on Sunday, with a review published on October 28, 2026. Quarterback Bo Nix ran 62 yards, virtually untouched, for a touchdown, the longest run by a quarterback in Broncos team history. Before that, no Broncos quarterback had ever had a run go more than 40 yards, a mark reached by Tim Tebow in 2010 and Jake Plummer in 2003. The review points to tight end Adam Trautman as the unsung hero: rather than run toward Nix to block for him, which would have attracted more defenders, Trautman moved in the other direction, acting as though he was trying to get open for a pass, even putting his hands up as if to catch the ball, further confusing an already confused defense as Nix raced to the end zone. Running back Jonah Coleman and wide receiver Troy Franklin also finished their routes, keeping their defenders occupied. Such plays are expected to be pointed out to the entire team by head coach Sean Payton during film study.
