Mandatory Credit: Katie Stratman-Imagn Images The Denver Broncos and defensive lineman Zach Allen are in agreement on a four-year, $102 million contract extension, multiple media outlets reported Saturday.
The deal includes $69.5 million in guaranteed money.
Allen, a third-round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft by the Cardinals, played his first four seasons in Arizona before signing a three-year, $47.75 million free-agent contract with Denver before the 2023 season. He was due to become a free agent after the upcoming season.
He turns 28 this month.
With the Broncos, he has appeared in 33 games (all starts) and tallied 121 tackles (23 for loss), 64 quarterback hits and 13.5 sacks.
In 78 career games (68 starts), he has 259 tackles (44 for loss), 107 QB hits, 25 sacks, one interception, a forced fumble and three fumble recoveries.
The Broncos have been on a spending spree this week.
On Monday, the team confirmed it had agreed to a four-year extension with wide receiver Courtland Sutton. Multiple reports pegged the value at $92 million.
