_Breaking News: Anthony Richardson Inks Record-Breaking Extension with Colts_
In a move that solidifies his status as the face of the Indianapolis Colts franchise, quarterback Anthony Richardson has signed a historic 6-year contract extension worth a staggering $100 million.
The deal, which was finalized earlier today, makes Richardson one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL. Sources close to the negotiations confirm that the contract includes a $30 million signing bonus and guarantees Richardson $70 million over the first three years.
“We’re thrilled to have Anthony committed to the Colts for the long haul,” said Colts General Manager, Chris Ballard. “He’s a special talent, and we’re confident he’ll lead our team to great success for years to come.”
Richardson, who was drafted fourth overall by the Colts in 2023, has quickly established himself as one of the league’s most exciting young quarterbacks. His impressive rookie campaign earned him a Pro Bowl selection and set the stage for this record-breaking extension.
“I’m grateful to the Colts organization for believing in me and investing in my future,” Richardson said in a statement. “I’m excited to continue working with my teammates and coaches to bring a championship to the city of
Indianapolis.”
