The Denver Broncos have picked up the fifth-year option on Pro Bowl cornerback Patrick Surtain II, meaning he will remain under contract through the 2025 NFL season. Since being selected by Denver with the No. 9 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Alabama, Surtain has earned two trips to the Pro Bowl and one first-team All-Pro honor. In 50 career games, he has racked up 187 tackles (150 solo), one forced fumble, seven interceptions, and 36 pass deflections. The Broncos are in an interesting time for the organization with Sean Payton at the helm, and the roster needs major reinforcements. However, they have their true No. 1 cornerback locked in for at least the next two seasons.

Denver Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain II (knee) suffered a knee injury during Sunday's game against the Houston Texans and is questionable to return. Surtain went to the medical tent after hurting his knee and was testing out his agility on the sidelines before heading to the locker room. The team should provide another update on the star corner shortly but if he remains out for the rest of the game then the arrow will continue to point up for Houston pass-catchers.
