Colts, Jonathan Taylor Agree To Extension

Key Points:

• Jonathan Taylor and the Indianapolis Colts agreed to a two-year contract extension worth up to $47 million, including $39 million guaranteed, keeping him with the team through the 2028 season.
• The deal features a $15 million signing bonus and raises Taylor’s salary above the $13 million he was already owed for the upcoming season, following a market reset by Bijan Robinson's recent extension.
• Taylor led the NFL in carries (323) and rushing touchdowns (18) in 2025, earning his third career Pro Bowl selection and remaining a key offensive contributor despite concerns about workload durability.
• The Colts, who struggled with injuries and a late-season collapse in 2025, will rely on Taylor as their primary running back alongside key offensive players like quarterback Daniel Jones and receiver Alec Pierce.
• Taylor has expressed a desire to spend his entire career with the Colts, and ongoing contract discussions suggest the team aims to maintain core players amid potential front office changes.
