After having his fifth-year option picked up, Denver Broncos outside linebacker Bradley Chubb is about to get a big pay raise in 2022.
Chubb had a base salary of $920,000 last year and he’s now set to have a base salary of $12,716,000 this fall, according to Spotrac.com. If Chubb wants to get a contract extension and remain in Denver beyond the 2022 season, he’ll have to have a big bounce-back year.
Since joining the Broncos in 2017, Chubb has battled through finger, knee and ankle injuries. Between those injuries and a brief battle with COVID-19, Chubb missed a total of 24 games over the last three seasons.
