Pro Bowl running back Jonathan Taylor and the Indianapolis Colts have reached an agreement on a two-year, $44-million extension, ESPN’s Adam Schefter and NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport report.
The deal, which reportedly includes $39 million guaranteed, is worth up to $47 million.
Taylor’s new contract is the second-highest in average annual salary among running backs behind only Bijan Robinson, who inked a three-year contract worth up to $75 million with the Atlanta Falcons this week.
Taylor said in June that he wanted to be a “Colt for life” while entering the final season of a three-year, $42-million extension signed in 2023.
