Former Alabama football cornerback Patrick Surtain II made his professional debut today for the Denver Broncos in the team’s first 2021 NFL preseason game. He wasted no time to make an impact, as he landed an interception and returned it for over 20 yards to the house.
The Broncos drafted Surtain No. 9 overall in the 2021 NFL draft. A move that was criticized by some, as Denver is in need of a new quarterback. However, they are already seeing just how much of a difference maker Surtain will be as a rookie on the team’s defense.
