Colts Agree To Massive Extension With Key Offensive Player: Report

The Indianapolis Colts and left tackle Bernhard Raimann have reportedly agreed to a four-year, $100 million extension, placing him among the to-five highest-paid players at his position, NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported Monday (July 28) night.

"The #Colts have agreed to terms with OT Bernhard Raimann on a four-year, $100 million extension, sources say. Raimann gets $60 million guaranteed in a deal done by Chase Callahan of @excelfootball," Garafolo wrote on his X account. "Raimann, the #Colts’ third-round pick in 2022, gets top 5 left tackle money. Another offensive tackle paid big money."

Raimann, 27, a native of Austria who played tight end before moving to offensive tackle during his sophomore season at Central Michigan, was selected by the Colts at No. 77 overall in the 2022 NFL Draft and has made 40 starts in 45 games during his first three NFL seasons, which included 14 in 2024.

"Bernhard has worked extremely hard, and this contract extension is a testament to his character, dedication and persistence," said Colts general manager Chris Ballard said in a statement obtained by NFL.com. "He exemplifies each of our team's four pillars and is a leader in our locker room. I'm excited for him and his family on this well-deserved contract extension."
