Colts Make Ryan Kelly Highest Paid NFL Center With $50 Million Extension

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.”
