Deal Details
The Colts reached agreement on a two-year, 35 million dollar extension for defensive lineman Adetomiwa Adebawore. The contract includes a 13 million dollar signing bonus and 22.5 million dollars in new money through 2027, securing the 25-year-old through the 2028 season.
Strong Season Performance
Adebawore posted a team-high four sacks this season along with a 23.3 percent pass rush win rate that led all Colts defensive linemen. He achieved those numbers despite facing double teams on 78.8 percent of his pass-rush snaps.
Team Direction and Roster Moves
The agreement comes after the team traded guard Quenton Nelson and defensive tackle DeForest Buckner. Speculation continues around other players including running back Jonathan Taylor, while receiver Josh Downs has requested a trade. The Colts chose to retain Adebawore as one of the young players they plan to build around.
