The Broncos are so completely screwed with that contract. He’s basically locked in as their QB until the end of 2025 (when they can launch him with a $50 million cap hit) or launch him before the 24 season (which they’d still pay him $35 million for even if he doesn’t play) and take the $85 million cap hit.
The one factor they didn’t account for is that he would suck.
I guess he could retire if the boos get too loud but he doesn’t strike me as the type to walk away from a boatload of cash.
