Since being drafted by the Broncos with the 20th pick in the 2017 NFL draft, Bolles has started all 111 games he's played in and was a second-team All-Pro in 2020.

With Bolles's help, Denver has put together one of the top offensive lines in football in 2024, allowing a pressure rate of just 27.4%—the fourth-lowest in the NFL.

The Broncos are 8–5 on the 2024 season under coach Sean Payton and rookie QB Nix. They'll take on the Colts this coming Sunday at 4from Empower Field at Mile High.
