Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix got the best of Las Vegas Raiders pass rusher Maxx Crosby on Sunday, avoiding a would-be sack with a juke.
“Bo Nix really broke Maxx Crosby’s ankles here 💀😭,” Complex Sports wrote on Twitter/X.
Another account wrote: “Bo Nix looking like Allen Iverson the way he snatched Maxx Crosby’s ankles. 🤩”
Nix “made Maxx Crosby look like a rookie 😂” another fan commented.
Many fans noted that Crosby attempted to trip Nix with his leg after missing the sack.
“I can’t stand Maxx Crosby. Clearly tries to trip Bo Nix here,” one Broncos fan wrote on Twitter/X.

Had he successfully caught Nix with his leg, Crosby would have received a 15-yard penalty for tripping.
Nix finished the game with 273 passing yards, two touchdowns and no turnovers in a 29-19 win. Crosby totaled five tackles — including three behind the line — and one quarterback hit, but he did not record any sacks. That snapped Crosby’s 10-game streak of totaling at least one sack against the Broncos.
