Former Oregon quarterbacks Justin Herbert and Bo Nix are NFL Division rivals and will face each other twice a year.
Denver Broncos No. 12-overall in the 2024 NFL DraftThe Broncos-Chargers rivalry dates back to 1960. All time, the Broncos lead the series 73–55–1. Yet somehow, Denver and L.A. have met only once in the playoffs, in the 2013 AFC Divisional round, the Broncos beat the Chargers 24-17. Of course, both Herbert and Nix face the difficult task of competing in the same division as the Kansas City Chiefs and quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
Can one of the former Duck quarterbacks take down one of the greatest NFL players ever in Mahomes? Head-to-head, Mahomes has a 5-1 record against Herbert. Those heated divisional games seemingly always come down to the wire and the Chargers have struggled to win in close games. as a Denver Bronco. Nix and Franklin will try to emulate the immense success and great connection they had at Oregon,as a member of the Las Vegas Raiders.
Oregon sending eight players to the league is in part a testament to what Coach Dan Lanning is building in Eugene. "I think it's exciting. Now it's about getting more of those guys in the first and second," Lanning said.
