Broncos have locked up one of their key potential free agents. With Nalen agreeing to stick around for 3 more years, this means he wont talk to the media until 2008.

This guy's awesome. 3 more seasons of those funny mugshots and weird hairdos. He supposedly has a good sense of humor and is the main goofball in the quirky offensive line. Wouldn't be unheard of to think of him as a Ring of Fame guy, if not Hall of Fame.

DETROIT - Denver Broncos center Tom Nalen, who said after the season he felt "better than ever," has agreed to terms on a three-year contract extension.

The 34-year-old said during training camp in July that 2005 might be his last season.

"But at the end of the year, Tom felt great, the team felt great and it was a mutual agreement to come back," Nalen's agent, Brad Blank, said. "He'll be 37 when this one runs out. It's highly unlikely there will be any more."

Broncos coach Mike Shanahan said the 12-year veteran, who started all 18 games this season, played "as well as he ever has. He's a Hall of Fame player."
