It's worth noting the Broncos reduced Allen's cap charge by a little more than $5M with this extension. That extra cap space can prove useful for giving the Broncos more wiggle room as they finalize the roster, make any transactions during the regular season and with potential carryover for 2026.

The Denver Broncos reached agreement on a new contract extension with defensive lineman Zach Allen after a career-high 8.5 sacks in 2024, making him the third-highest player in the NFL at his position.

The Broncos defensive tackle came to an agreement with the team on a four-year, $102 million contract extension, according to multiple league sources. The deal comes with $69.5 million in guarantees and Allen is now under contract with the club through 2029.
