Linebacker Darius Leonard and the Indianapolis Colts agreed to a five-year, $99.25 million contract extension Sunday.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Leonard will be the highest-paid inside linebacker in football.
Leonard was a second-round pick in 2018 and quickly made an impact in the NFL, winning Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2018 and All-Pro first-team honors in 2018 and 2020.
Through his first three seasons in Indianapolis, the 25-year-old has compiled a staggering 416 combined tackles, 22 pass deflections, 15 sacks, seven interceptions, nine forced fumbles, four fumble recoveries and one touchdown.
