Drafted No. 106 in 2018 by the Denver Broncos, inside linebacker Josey Jewell is entering his sixth NFL season.

Josey Jewell Salary

Jewell signed a two-year, $11,000,000 contract with the Broncos in 2022. It included a $4,500,000 signing bonus, $6,000,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $5,500,000.

Josey Jewell Cap Hit

The 28-year-old carries a $7,130,000 cap hit in 2023.

Josey Jewell Potential Extension

After missing most of 2021, Jewell suited up for 13 games in 2022. The result was the most productive season of Jewell’s career, tallying 128 tackles, two forced fumbles, and two interceptions. He also played the second-most snaps of his career with 758.

If Jewell can bring similar production to the Broncos in 2023, he’ll likely be looking at a raise as a free agent in 2024. A two-year contract worth $7 million per season might be on the table for Jewell.
