Description

The Denver Broncos coach, Sean Payton, is making headlines with his early contract extensions, including a four-year, forty-eight million dollar deal for center Luke Wattenberg. This move, along with earlier extensions for kicker Wil Lutz, deviates from the typical NFL strategy of waiting until the off-season. Wattenberg, a fifth-round pick from 2022, has proven his value, starting for two seasons and earning praise from Payton. The Broncos face salary cap challenges with several key players contracts expiring, but Paytons early extensions provide financial flexibility, particularly with quarterback Bo Nix still on his rookie contract.
