A big congratulations to Christian Parker. The former Broncos secondary coach did a great job coaching up Philadelphia’s young DBs, who played a huge role in this defensive dominance. Has helped develop some of the game’s best — Jaire Alexander, PS2, Cooper DeJean, Q. Mitchell.

Pat Surtain becomes the second Broncos player to win Defensive Player of the Year, joining Randy Gradishar (1978). He’s also the first corner to win since 2019 and the youngest to claim it since JJ Watt in 2012.
