Undergoes wrist surgery
Bonitto underwent surgery on his wrist in early February, Luca Evans of The Denver Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Bonitto played with a club on his wrist for most of the season, but he still managed to suit up for all 17 regular-season games while logging 14.0 sacks. The surgery was described as a clean-up procedure, so it doesn't appear that his offseason will be significantly impacted.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
Selected in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft, Bonitto enters his rookie season coming off a solid year at Oklahoma, in which he totaled seven sacks and 15 tackles for loss in 12 games. The 6-foot-3, 240-pounder is an athletic edge rusher with a chance to make an immediate impact in what projects to be a formidable defense in 2022.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to exploit Pats' left tackle
Ted Nguyen of The Athletic believes the matchup between Bonitto and rookie left tackle Will Campbell will be one of the keys to Sunday's AFC Championship Game between the Patriots and Broncos.
ANALYSIS
Bonitto enjoyed a productive 2025 campaign, finishing fifth in the league with 14.0 sacks while being named a finalist for the NFL Defensive Player of the Year award. His 24 percent pass rush win rate was second best among edge defenders, and that should translate well against Campbell, with the latter giving up three sacks -- including two strip-sacks -- in which he was beaten around the corner across two playoff games. If the Patriots opt to give Campbell help with blocking Bonitto, then that would open up pass-rushing opportunities for the likes of Jonathon Cooper, Zach Allen and John Franklin-Myers.
