The Denver Broncos and cornerback Patrick Surtain agreed on a four-year, $96 million contract extension on Wednesday, making him the highest-paid defensive back in league history, a person close to the situation informed USA TODAY Sports' Tyler Dragon. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because they aren't authorized to discuss the deal.
The contract includes a guaranteed of $77.5 million for the 24-year-old Surtain, who is tied to his new contract through the 2029 season.
Surtain had two years and $23.3 million remaining on his original deal.
Surtain has established himself as a top cornerback in the league since the Broncos selected him in the first round of the 2021 NFL draft.
He has made two Pro Bowls and was a first-team All-Pro selection in 2022, and last season, Surtain recorded 69 tackles with 12 passes defensed and one interception.
