Denver 'would like' to get a deal done with its Pro Bowl cornerback — on its own schedule.
Addressing reporters Tuesday, Broncos head coach Sean Payton was noncommittal on a new deal for Surtain, merely offering the club "would like" to get it done.
The ninth overall pick of the 2021 draft, Surtain is entrenched among the league's best at his position, securing two Pro Bowl selections and an All-Pro nod across his first three campaigns. He led the Broncos in pass deflections and finished third in solo tackles last season, playing 99.2% of the defensive snaps.
Such as they did with another homegrown stud, guard Quinn Meinerz, the Broncos would wisely get ahead of a competitive market that will only grow pricier by locking down Surtain sooner rather than later. A possible financial floor was set Tuesday by Jaguars CB Tyson Campbell, who inked a four-year, $76.5 million extension with $53.4 million in guarantees.
