Patrick Surtain II had to be smiling ear to ear when A.J. Terrell got paid. The Denver Broncos? Not so much.
fans may be expecting the team to announce in the near future is that of 2021 first-round pick Patrick Surtain II. As one of the top cornerbacks in the NFL, it's not hard to figure out that the Broncos need to keep him.
The new guarantees are important to note because Terrell was due $12.344M in fully guaranteed salary for 2024, after the Falcons exercised the fifth-year option in his rookie deal. Still, the new guarantees matter, along with full and total guarantees, in figuring out how this contract might impact the negotiations for a Surtain extension.
In other words, Ward still holds the highest marks for guaranteed money, whether full or total guarantees. Thus, those numbers are still the ones Surtain is poised to surpass. Consequently, Surtain and his agent are certain to seek a significant sum of new guarantees. If we assume Surtain was to sign that deal this season and match Terrell's $53.5M in new guarantees, Surtain would be looking at $76.8M in total guarantees. That would easily surpass Ward's total guarantees.
