Pat Surtain II is set at one cornerback spot in Denver for years to come, but the makeup of the rest of the group is uncertain beyond 2026.
Riley Moss and Ja'Quan McMillian are both heading into the final year of their current contracts, which could lead to at least one departure once the year is out. The presence of 2025 first-round pick Jahdae Barron on the depth chart would seem to make that scenario likelier than not, but Moss said recently that he is not giving much thought to anything but the immediate future.
“To be honest, no. It’ll handle itself out like it always has,” Moss said, via Parker Gabriel of the Denver Post. “I trust in God, and I trust in myself, and I’m just going to go out, do my thing, continue to do my thing, and the rest will take care of itself.”
Moss was a third-round pick in 2023 and he's been a starter alongside Surtain for the last two seasons. He had 80 tackles, an interception, a sack and a league-high 19 passes defensed in 2025. That last statistic is tied to teams' unwillingness to throw at Surtain and that's unlikely to change, so Moss should have plenty of opportunity to showcase his ability for the Broncos or any other team that may want to take a run at signing him as a free agent.
