Denver Broncos cornerback and potential Defensive Player of the Year candidate Pat Surtain gave a positive update on the condition of his injured ankle at a charity event on Monday.
“It’s better,” Surtain said. “I’m taking it day-by-day, that’s about it.”
Surtain injured his ankle in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s victory over the Indianapolis Colts. Reports have indicated it’s a minor sprain, and Surtain was listed as a full participant on the Broncos’ estimated Monday injury report.
Surtain teamed up with Raising Cane’s and A Precious Child to give away 100 bicycles to children in Aurora, Colorado on Monday. This was the fifth annual giveaway, and this year 2,500 bikes were given away at 25 locations across the U.S.
“It’s always a great experience to give back to those who are less fortunate,” Surtain said. “It shows true character to give back. Denver shows great support to me, so I’ve got to show great support back in a meaningful way. … Just seeing the kids’ smile on their faces, it’s a unique treasure to give back. Because I understand how much this means to them.”

Surtain took time to take pictures and interact with fans and recipients at the event. He will now turn attention toward preparing for a Thursday Night Football showdown with the Los Angeles Chargers on Dec. 19.
