INDIANAPOLIS, IN - SEPTEMBER 22: Ryan Kelly #78 of the Indianapolis Colts is seen during the game against the Atlanta Falcons at Lucas Oil Stadium on September 22, 2019 in Indianapolis, Indiana.
In the last bit of news to come out of camps, the Indianapolis Colts giving star center Ryan Kelly a four-year, $50 million extension making him the NFL’s highest-paid center.
“Feels good to be rewarded,” Kelly said. “I want to live up to the contract I signed. Go out every single day, be the leader on the offensive line they know I can be. Play with the consistency I can play with and stay healthy. Those are the things that drive me every single day. One thing I’ve learned in this business is even when you’re the highest-paid you’re going to be the highest-paid for a week, a year, somebody is going to jump you eventually. It’s not something you want to be dealing with on the middle of the season. I’m glad it got done.”
