Pat Surtain II Admits 'Lazy' Technique in Broncos' Loss to Colts

The All-Pro cornerback is off the injury report entering a divisional test against the Chargers.

Overview

  • Surtain said parts of his technique were "a little lazy" in Week 2, when he allowed seven catches on nine targets for 63 yards in a 29-28 defeat at Indianapolis.
  • He briefly left with a left-ankle issue, missed one defensive play, returned to finish the game, practiced fully, and was not listed on the injury report.
  • Coach Sean Payton said the Colts were not specifically targeting Surtain and noted he expects the cornerback to clean up his technique on several plays.
  • Denver's defense surrendered 473 total yards and did not force a punt against Indianapolis, highlighting broader corrective needs.
  • The Broncos are 1-1 heading into Week 3 against the 2-0 Chargers, with first place in the AFC West at stake.
