Pat Surtain II Reacts to Eagles Pro Bowl WR’s Viral Comments
Dean was selected by the Eagles in the third round of last year’s draught. He has played in 22 games and has 43 tackles, three for loss, and a half-sack.Although Denver Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain II’s 2023 body of work hasn’t been as impressive as his All-Pro campaign in 2022, he’s still a top-tier player. Week in and week out, the NFL pays attention to Surtain, particularly the opponents the Broncos face on the schedule.
Even Denver’s non-opponents can’t deny Surtain’s exceptional talent. During an appearance on FS1’s Speak, Philadelphia Eagles All-Pro wideout A.J. Brown discussed Surtain’s rising NFL profile, calling the Broncos’ starter the best in the industry.
Brown, a former first-round draught selection, has made a name for himself in Philadelphia. He was named to two consecutive Pro Bowls and was named a second-team All-Pro last season, and he’s already surpassed the 1,000-yard receiving mark this season, so he’s certain to be recognised again.
Surtain has never faced Brown before. The Broncos will not face the Eagles this season, thus the first Surtain vs. Brown clash may not come until the AFC West meets the NFC East in 2025.
