Tackle Trevor Pryce became one of the NFL’s top-paid defensive players Wednesday when he re-signed with the Denver Broncos for $60 million over seven years.

The deal includes a signing bonus worth nearly $11 million.

“I wanted to play here the rest of my career,” the 6-foot-5, 295-pound Pryce said. “I love the city. I love the people. This is an ideal situation for me and my family.”

Pryce, who was in the final year of his five-year, $4.9-million contract, was rewarded with a revamped deal after appearing in his second consecutive Pro Bowl.
