Denver Broncos Cornerback Patrick Surtain II has been rolling in the awards since the season ended.
During the season, man players and coaches commented on his elite-level talent. Surtain II had a great rookie season last year, but he took his game to another level this season for the Broncos.
He was one of the most consistent cornerbacks in the NFL. Surtain II consistently covered opposing teams’ top wideouts and often performed quite well.
It is no coincidence that praise from around the entire league has been raining in for the young star.
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow just offered one of the best compliments you can get as a defender in the NFL.
Joe Burrow said Pat Surtain is the best cornerback in the NFL.

Burrow believes that the Broncos’ young defensive back is the best in the business. Just two years into his career, he is already at the top of the game.
It’s hard to argue against Burrow’s point of view as well. Surtain II was selected to be a starter in the Pro Bowl.
Additionally, his fellow players selected him to the All-Pro squad. That is a collection of the best players at each position, according to players’ voting.
For the Broncos, the future is very bright on defense.
Surtain II headlines a group in the secondary that should be one of the best for years to come.
