## Resource

The Denver Broncos are evaluating their roster, focusing on cornerback Patrick Surtain IIs contract situation. With his current cap hit of over sixteen million dollars in 2026 and a guaranteed base salary of over seven million, the team is considering restructuring his deal to spread out cap charges and keep his immediate cap numbers manageable. Surtain, a franchise cornerstone, is a safer bet for the Broncos, and adding void years to his contract could lower his current cap number without major long-term issues, assuming he maintains his elite performance.
