However, it appears Nix and head coach Sean Payton are not on the same page when it comes to Nix’s ankle injury, the recovery timeline, and his injury history as a whole. He said he had one [ankle injury] in high school, and then he said he had one at Auburn. However, Payton expanded on those comments this week following the Broncos’ season-ending loss, offering a more serious explanation of the injury. “I think what was found was a condition that made it predisposed,” Payton said. Nix said Payton should not have shared details about his prior injury history, noting that the comments were inaccurate and overreaching.
