The Broncos rallied from down 11 points in the third quarter to take the lead on Kansas City late in Sunday's Week 8 matchup in Denver. And when Jonah Coleman crossed the goal line for that go-ahead score, he was giving Mahomes nearly two minutes of game time to work with.

That alone had Nix worried and he told Mahomes about it after the Broncos' 28-24 win.

In mic'd-up footage from NFL Films, Nix told Mahomes:

"I've always admired you. Watching you play ... you do a great job. I was scared to death when you got the ball back."

With that win, Nix improved to 2-2 in his career against Mahomes. He won't have to worry about seeing Mahomes again this season until a potential playoff matchup.
