The Drive | Hour 4 | 06.02.25

In hour 4 of The Drive, Zach and Phil react to PFF ranking the NFL’s top 32 edge rushers. Where did Nik Bonitto land on the list and should he feel disrespected for not being in the top 20 after finishing 3^rd in sacks, last season? How will the Broncos approach a contract extension with Bonitto, and will they get a deal done before the season starts? Should the Broncos wait and make Bonitto repeat his success before giving him a big pay day? We wrap up the show with DenverSports.com’s Will Petersen joining the show to discuss Nik Bonitto’s potential extension. Will there be dissension in the Broncos locker room if some players are paid while others don’t receive a contract extension? Will we see college football playoff expansion coming soon?
