Summary

The Indianapolis Colts have extended the contract of defensive tackle Adetomiwa Adebawore for $35 million, which includes a $13 million roster bonus. This extension adds $22.5 million in new money through the 2027 season. Adebawore, who has recorded four sacks this season, was initially part of trade speculation amid a roster overhaul following the firing of general manager Chris Ballard.
