Bolles agreed to terms Thursday on a four-year, $82 million contract extension with the Broncos, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Bolles' new deal reportedly includes $42 million guaranteed and an additional $4 million in incentives. The 32-year-old left tackle has performed to an elite level as a pass blocker this season, so it's unsurprising to see the Denver prioritize retaining him to protect Bo Nix's blind side for the foreseeable future. Bolles will look to remain stellar as the Broncos prepare to take on the Colts at home Sunday.

Broncos' Garett Bolles: Negative X-rays
Rotowire
Head coach Sean Payton told reporters Monday that Bolles' X-rays came back negative after he sustained an ankle injury Sunday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
It appears that Bolles avoided a serious injury, in light of Payton's comments Monday. Payton added that Bolles obviously has a "contusion," so he's still dealing with the issue and could potentially miss time. If the 32-year-old offensive lineman is forced to miss games, expect Matt Peart to work as the Broncos' first-team left tackle.

Broncos' Garett Bolles: Expected to be healthy for 2023
Rotowire
Broncos general manager George Paton said Tuesday that he expects Bolles (leg) to be healthy for the 2023 campaign, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Bolles broke his leg in Week 5 and underwent season-ending surgery after being placed on IR. The 2017 first-round pick has been a regular starter at left tackle since being drafted, so his potential availability could be a major boost in 2023 and help Denver's offense bounce back following a tumultuous first season with Russell Wilson at the helm.
