The Broncos have made perhaps one of their easiest decisions of the offseason.
Denver exercised the fifth-year option on All-Pro cornerback Pat Surtain II’s rookie contract on Tuesday, keeping him under contract through 2025.
Surtain, the ninth overall pick in 2021, will earn $6.6 million ($3.5 million guaranteed) in 2024, according to Over The Cap. But his salary of $19.8 million in 2025 will be fully guaranteed.
