Ryan Clady offered contract extension

By Ryan Ebert | Ryan@nflen.com

Broncos All-Pro left tackle has reportedly been offered a five-year $50 million deal.  The contract extension includes $28 million guaranteed according to an NFL source.

The talks began in May, and if Clady takes the offer he would be included in one of the five richest offensive lineman in football, based on annual salary.  This upcoming year he is to earn $3.5 million; if he accepts the offer he will earn $10 million.

Since he was drafted with the 12th pick in the 2008 NFL Draft Clady has played all 66 regular season and playoff games.  In that time he has only missed 15 regular-season snaps.  In his rookie year he earned his All-Pro status when he did not allow one sack all year long, and he went to the Pro Bowl in the 2009 and 2011 seasons.

Denver is trying hard to keep the former Boise St. Bronco and have him guard Manning's blindside.  Here's hoping Clady stay a Bronco and retires as one too.
