Colts running back Jonathan Taylor has agreed to a three-year $42 million contract extension which includes $26.5 million in guaranteed payments, ESPN’s Adam Schefter first reported Saturday.
Taylor, who returned to practice as a full participant Wednesday, has been in the midst of a well-publicized contract dispute that led to the star tailback requesting a trade in July.
The move to repair the relationship with the club’s top players is pivotal to providing rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson with a reliable threat in the backfield.
