Is this the year Ballard finally gets fired?!?! His philosophy doesn’t work. He’s afraid to make a splash in free agency or the draft. 🙄 Tired of Ballard Colts Fan
Sources to ESPN: Jonathan Taylor and the Colts reached agreement on a three-year, $42 million contract extension, including $26.5M guaranteed, that makes him one of the league’s highest-paid RBs and clears him to make his season debut Sunday vs. Titans.
Taylor becomes the first RB to land a long-term deal worth $10 million or more per year since Nick Chubb in 2021 — almost 800 days ago.
After months of animosity, Colts owner Jim Irsay, GM Chris Ballard, exec Mike Bluem and Taylor’s representatives Malki Kawa and Ethan Lock finally came together and successfully negotiated a contract extension. Each side gets what it wants.
@Colts@JimIrsay
Since we are likely gonna miss out on a QB in the draft. Please do all that is legally capable of making Lamar Jackson an Indianapolis Colt next season
Thank You
