After re-signing Garett Bolles to contract extension, are Broncos willing to keep Ja’Wuan James?

Just two months ago, the question would have been met with a smirk, and maybe a guffaw, and probably a head-shake. What will be the value of left tackle Garett Bolles’ next Broncos contract? Even with visible progress over the final half of last season, the notion of Bolles signing a long-term deal to stay with the Broncos seemed like a long-shot, particularly after the Broncos declined his fifth-year option. Until Saturday. Amidst the team’s quarterbacks being ruled ineligible for Sunday’s game against New Orleans because of contact tracing, Bolles signed a four-year contract that is worth $68 million, a league source said — the $17 million average placing him among the NFL’s top four left tackles. Before the contract was signed, Bolles’ future with the Broncos took center stage due to his improved play, replacing a juicy storyline about who they will acquire to replace him. It’s a hat-tip to Bolles that he responded to offensive line coach Mike Munchak’s instruction. “The key to his turnaround is just persistence, both on his part and our part,” Broncos coach Vic Fangio said.
