Pat Surtain II on Nick Saban's Wrath, Bo Nix Doubters & 2025 Broncos

Johnny Manziel sits down with Denver Broncos star cornerback Patrick Surtain II to talk about his rise from Alabama standout to one of the NFL’s top defensive players. Patrick looks back on his time playing under Nick Saban, the championship culture at Alabama, and how going up against elite talent every day helped prepare him for Sundays.

The conversation dives into Patrick’s NFL success, including what it meant to be named Defensive Player of the Year and how he approaches matchups against the best in the game. He breaks down what it’s like guarding Ja’Marr Chase, what makes him such a unique challenge, and how he prepares to shut down top-tier receivers each week.

Johnny and Patrick also look ahead to the future of the Denver Broncos. With Sean Payton taking the reins and rookie quarterback Bo Nix generating buzz, Patrick shares his thoughts on the team’s direction and why there’s real belief inside the building that Denver is on the verge of turning a corner.
