Denver Broncos star cornerback Pat Surtain added to his trophy room this week when the Pro Football Writers of America and 101 Awards named him Defensive Player of the Year and AFC Defensive Player of the year, respectively.

These are the latest honors in a season full up accolades for Surtain. The 24-year-old cornerback was also named an AP first-team All-Pro, a PFWA All-NFL cornerback, a 2024 Pro Bowler and the Broncos’ Demaryius Thomas Team MVP this season.

Surtain now has two All-Pro nods on his resume, making him the third cornerback in franchise history to earn multiple first-team All-Pro selections. He’s also the third defensive player in franchise history to earn first-team All-Pro selections multiple times within his first four years in the NFL.

Here is the full list of awards Surtain has won so far this season.

Pat Surtain 2024 Awards

AP All-Pro (first team)
PFWA Defensive Player of the Year
101 AFC Defensive Player of the Year
PFWA All-NFL Team
Pro Bowl (starter)
Demaryius Thomas Team MVP
AFC Defensive Player of the Month (November)
AFC Defensive Player of the Week (Week 5)

Surtain now has three Pro Bowl nods in his career. He is the fifth cornerback in team history to earn Pro Bowl selections in three consecutive seasons, and he’s the second cornerback to earn multiple Pro Bowl selections in his first four seasons (joining Willie Brown).

NFL NextGen Stats have provided great stats that demonstrate how dominant Surtain’s season was. Among cornerbacks with at least 375 coverage snaps, Surtain allowed the fewest receiving yards (306) and the second-lowest passer rating when targeted (59.1).

His 306 yards allowed were the fewest by a cornerback with at least 500 coverage stats since NextGen Stats started tracking that metric in 2016.

Going up against some of the NFL’s most talented receivers this season, Surtain allowed a total of 17 combined receptions for 166 yards in 243 coverage snaps against DK Metcalf, George Pickens, Mike Evans, Garrett Wilson, Zay Flowers, Rashad Bateman, DeAndre Hopkins, Drake London, Darnell Mooney, Jerry Jeudy, Michael Pittman, Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and Brock Bowers, according to NextGen Stats.

Surtain is now one of five finalists for the AP‘s Defensive Player of the Year award. If he wins that award, Surtain will become the second player in franchise history to take home the honor, joining Randy Gradishar (1978).

Only six cornerbacks have ever won the AP DPOY award, with Stephon Gilmore being the most recent CB recipient in 2019. PS2 could join them as the seventh CB to win DPOY when AP awards are announced during NFL Honors on Feb. 6.
