The Denver Broncos are gearing up for a crucial offseason filled with contract negotiations for several key players who will soon become free agents. After significant signings in free agency, attention now shifts to potential extensions for five notable players ahead of the 2026 free agency period.

Defensive lineman Zach Allen, who recorded 40 quarterback hits and 8.5 sacks last season, is seeking a lucrative contract, aiming for around $25 million per year. Meanwhile, outside linebacker Nik Bonitto, fresh off a Pro Bowl selection with 13.5 sacks, is expected to negotiate for about $23 million annually. Wide receiver Courtland Sutton, on the final year of his deal, will likely seek an extension and a salary increase from his current $14 million. The team will also consider defensive linemen John Franklin-Myers and Malcolm Roach for extensions, with Roach being touted as a standout free agent signing from the previous year.
