Luke Wattenberg extension could be bad news for this Broncos' guard

The Denver Broncos have gotten to work during the bye week, extending Wil Lutz and now Luke Wattenberg, their starting center. This is a huge deal for the Broncos, as the center is the only other player on the field who touches the ball every play, besides the quarterback, obviously.

Wattenberg was scheduled to be a free agent in March, but he's back with the Broncos for another four years. He was a 5th-round pick back in the 2022 NFL Draft and is now cashing in on a deal that pays him $27 million in guarantees and is worth $12 million per season.
