On Monday, the Denver Broncos helped Bo Nix get better, if you ask Sean Payton.

The Broncos never positioned themselves like a team planning to take on a contract in the realm of the reported three years and $45 million Seattle committed to. And Kupp, given his long history of production, never figured to be available at the bargain basement price that might have looked attractive to the Broncos.

Sean Payton and the Broncos have an option as an offensive “Joker.” That’s tight end Evan Engram, who on Wednesday agreed to a two-year deal with Denver. Engram’s agency, Vayner Sports, confirmed the deal.

If Evan Engram joins to Denver Broncos and becomes Sean Payton's 'Joker', it will certainly put a smile on the head coach's face

Denver star center Nikola Jokić had another impressive performance with 19 assists in the win. The "Joker" has a strong arm, so there's been a running joke in Colorado that he could play quarterback for the Broncos, but Payton sees him more as a tight end.
