DENVER (AP) — Denver Broncos standout cornerback Pat Surtain II was ruled out for the second half against Dallas on Sunday with a shoulder injury.

The reigning defensive player of the year was hurt trying to make a tackle just before halftime. He finished with five tackles.

Earlier in the game, Surtain hurt his lower leg while breaking up a pass in the end zone. He stayed down for several minutes before being helped off the field by medical personnel. After a visit to the medical tent for evaluation, he spent a few minutes testing out the leg before returning to the game.

The fifth-year player out of Alabama earned AP Defensive Player of the Year honors a season ago after intercepting four passes and breaking up 11 passes.
