Android 7 was released before support ended for the Nexus 6 (support ended in October 2016). When you purchase the device, you're paying for the device plus 2 years of support. It originally wasn't released for the Nexus 6 because of some issues that needed to be worked out. The rollout for the Nexus 6 was postponed many times... into January 2017. Being February, I called them about the update issue.
On February 11th, a representative at Project Fi (Google) told me that there was still issues and they will not be releasing the update for the Nexus 6. I guess they just changed their mind? I didn't realize you could just 'change your mind' on a contract.
In summary and according to a Google rep that I talked to, if you purchased a Nexus 6, you paid $600 for a phone that supposedly comes with 2 years of support but gets 1 year and 11 months support instead.
