Garett Bolles No. 42 on NFL Top 100, ahead of Joe Burrow and Chris Jones

Denver Broncos left tackle Garett Bolles made the NFL Top 100 list on Friday morning.

And his ranking is pretty eye-popping, especially given who Bolles is directly ranked ahead of.

Bolles checked in at No. 42 overall, besting Bengals star QB Joe Burrow (No. 44) and Chiefs stud defensive end Chris Jones (No. 43).

It’s the second time Garett Bolles has been on the NFL Top 100 in his career, but first appearance since 2021 when he was ranked No. 82 in the league.

In the video above, Garett Bolles receives his flowers from the likes of Micah Parsons, Will Anderson Jr., Danielle Hunter, Arik Armstead and Kayvon Thibodeaux. That’s a ton of great pass-rushers who obviously respect the heck out of Bolles.

And it’d be hard not to after the year Bolles had in 2025 and the career he’s posted thus far. Bolles allowed zero sacks in over 1,100 snaps, which is just ridiculously good. He was also a first-team All-Pro and a Pro Bowl selection for the first time last season.

Bolles joins Zach Allen (No. 73), Courtland Sutton (No. 68) and Bo Nix (No. 59) as Broncos players who have made the NFL Top 100, with the top-40 players yet to be revealed. Pat Surtain II will certainly be on the list, with Nik Bonitto having a strong case as well and perhaps Quinn Meinerz.

Good for Garett Bolles, who’s aging like a fine wine. Now the 34-year-old would love to play in (and win) a Super Bowl to put the cherry on top of a great career.
