The Denver Broncos have one Pro Bowler this season, which based on the season they have had, I’m sure they are thankful for the one.
Patrick Surtain II, the second-year cornerback, is now a Pro Bowler, and the only Pro Bowler on the team. It’s safe to say that his play this season has elevated him into the conversation of one of the best at his position in the league.
Surtain is always matched up with the opposing team's best receiver, and while we have seen him struggle some in that position this season, we have also seen him be dominant, and take over games on that side of the ball. That is why he is a Pro Bowler.
Making a Pro Bowl is amazing for the players. It gives them the recognition they deserve while getting to participate in something that is fun for the players and the fans. But Surtain has something else in mind.
If you didn't already know, the Manning brothers will be the coaches of the NFC and AFC Pro Bowl teams. For the NFC it's Eli Manning and for the AFC it's Peyton Manning, the former Super Bowl-winning Denver Bronco.
Surtain is looking forward to spending time with Peyton, because, well, who wouldn't?
"He's a legend. A Hall of Famer. Getting insight from him will be pretty dope," Surtain said.
The Broncos are lucky to have Surtain on the team. He is one of the brightest young corners in the league, and picking Manning's brain will only help him get better.
Fans should be more than excited the two are going to get together.
