Is Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix clutch?
Kay Adams of FanDuel TV's Up & Adams show asked that very question to former NFL cornerback Chris Harris earlier this offseason.
"It's too early," Harris said. "It's too early to say he's clutch [or] to say he's not. We didn't have that many clutch games -- nail-biter games where he had to make comebacks. But I think he has -- he's not afraid of it. I don't think he's afraid at all to make those plays. Some quarterbacks might be afraid of the moment."
Harris then remembered the team's 41-32 win over the Cleveland Browns on Monday Night Football last fall.
"I think Bo wants the moment -- he wants to throw the ball in that situation -- and actually, the Cleveland Browns game! ... That was clutch."
Harris also chimed in on the Bo Nix vs. Justin Herbert debate. Who will have the better career?
"I would say at the beginning I would give it to Justin," Harris said, "but, hopefully, as we [progress], Bo can take it over. ... I think he can take that leap over him."

Harris played for the Broncos from 2011-2019, helping the team win Super Bowl 50 following the 2015 season. A four-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro, Harris officially retired last October with 22 career interceptions on his resume.

4 former Arizona Cardinals honored in 'Actually Underrated' team

Players who should have gotten more recognition include Karlos Dansby and other former Cardinals. Many NFL players have fantastic careers without getting the recognition they deserve. Saints Wire's John Sigler decided to wrap up the quiet part of the offseason by putting together what he called the "Actually Underrated Team," both on offense and on defense. The concept of it goes like this: We set out to highlight the best players who weren't recognized with Pro Bowl popularity contests or coveted spots on the All-Pro teams from the Associated Press. And when possible, we tried to avoid players drafted high in the first round. Those guys are expected to start for eight or nine years and make a consistent impact. It's a different set of expectations for even a mid-round draft pick, much less a late-round lottery scratch-off or rookie free agent. On the defensive squad, four former Arizona Cardinals players were mentioned. One played only a season. Another only spent a part of a season. Two played many seasons, including one who had three different stints with the team. 'Actually Underrated' former Cardinals Breaking it down Peko played 15 seasons, finishing his career after the 2020 season when he played six games for the Cardinals. He never made the Pro Bowl but started 194 games in his career and was a steady, reliable nose tackle. Williams played just one season with the Cardinals in 2017. He played 14 years in the NFL and made one Pro Bowl. Peters had a 13-year NFL career from 2010-2022. He spent 2015-2021 with the Cardinals. He had 135 total starts but did not make a Pro Bowl. Dansby was an interesting player. He never made the Pro Bowl, but statistically he could make a case for the Hall of Fame. He won't make it because he never was a Pro Bowler, but he had 20 interceptions and 43 sacks in his career. His 2013 season should have gotten more Defensive Player of the Year consideration (122 tackles, 12 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks, 12 QB hits, an incredible 19 pass breakups and four interceptions, two of which he returned for touchdowns. In his 14-year career, he played eight for the Cardinals, from 2004-2009, then again in 2013 and again in 2017 to close out his career.

Deion Sanders 'not all the way recovered' from health issue but planning return soon

Colorado football coach Deion Sanders said in a video posted by his eldest son on Sunday, July 20 that he's 'not all the way recovered' but otherwise showed signs of returning to his job in Boulder soon after recently battling an undisclosed health issue this summer. 'You know I'm still going through something,' Sanders said to his daughter Shelomi and son Deion Jr. 'I ain't all the way recovered.' The video posted by Deion Jr. then shows him dipping his legs in an ice bath. The same video showed him more physically active than before, with footage of him shooting baskets on a basketball court, sitting down after tennis lessons and discussing a 'run-walk' he finished at his estate in Texas. 'I'm getting better, though, right?' Sanders said to his youngest daughter Shelomi in the video. Sanders appeared at a Big 12 Conference media days event on July 9 in Frisco, Texas, but declined to reveal the health issue that has kept him away from campus in Boulder while a wave of recruits visited in June. Recruits were told he was out sick. While recovering in Texas, Sanders, 57, also missed a number of events in May and June, including the wedding of his star player, Travis Hunter, on May 24 in Tennessee, a speaking appearance in Florida scheduled for June 8 and Colorado's annual youth and high school camps in Boulder in June. GONE FROM CAMPUS: Did Deion Sanders' absence affect Colorado's recruiting? 'I got on the phone with him' Colorado doesn't open preseason football practice until late July and doesn't open the season until Aug 29 against Georgia Tech. But Sanders indicated he's coming back soon. In a video posted by his son Shilo on July 16, Sanders is heard talking on the phone with Shilo and telling him that he would try his best to rent a plane to visit him in Florida before visiting his other son, Shedeur, in Ohio as they try to make the rosters of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Cleveland Browns. 'And then go to work,' Sanders said. In an interview with media personality Phillip Dukes posted on July 17, Deion Jr. also gave an update from Texas. "We headed back to Colorado next week," Deion Jr. said. "It's a blessing. It's been a long journey, a long road and soon everybody will know the reason I haven't left this house this summer. ... Everyone will know in the next few weeks or so." In another video posted on July 17, Sanders said Shedeur recently mentioned his father's weight loss and said he looked like Lil Duval, the comedian and actor. In late May, Deion Sanders said on a podcast with former NFL cornerback Asante Samuel that he had lost 14 pounds related to his health issue. He has a history of blood circulation issues in his legs, but it's not clear if that's related to his recent sabbatical. Follow reporter Brent Schrotenboer @Schrotenboer. Email: bschrotenb@
