Patrick Surtain II now has his number for the Denver Broncos.
As the No. 9 overall pick in the NFL Draft, the former Alabama cornerback will wear No. 2. He sported the same number through three seasons (2018-20) for the Crimson Tide. The Broncos unveiled the news on Monday via its Twitter account.
Surtain, a native of Plantation, Fla., was a five-star athlete for the Tide. He finished his collegiate career with 117 tackles, 27 pass breakups, and four interceptions. The 6-foot-2, 208-pounder was the SEC’s Defensive Player of the Year and a Unanimous First-Team All-American selection in 2020.
