Broncos solidify their offensive line
The Denver Broncos have agreed to a four-year contract extension with starting center Lloyd Cushenberry. The deal, which is worth up to $36 million, will keep Cushenberry in Denver through the 2026 season.
Cushenberry was a third-round pick by the Broncos in the 2020 NFL Draft. He started all 16 games at center as a rookie, becoming the first rookie center to start all 16 games for the Broncos since Dan Koppen in 2003.
Rising Star
Cushenberry has been a key part of the Broncos’ offensive line, which has been one of the best in the NFL in recent years. The Broncos have ranked in the top 10 in both rushing offense and passing offense in each of the last two seasons.
Cushenberry is a tough, physical blocker who is also very athletic. He is quick off the ball and has the strength to move defenders off the line of scrimmage. He is also a good pass protector, and he has not allowed a sack in his two seasons as a starter.
