Colts’ Ascending Star RT Braden Smith on Imminent Contract Extension: ‘I just let my agent handle that’

Indianapolis Colts ascending star starting right tackle Braden Smith isn’t thinking about any ongoing contract extension discussions—leaving them to his agent, while he solely focuses on the football field this offseason (via the IndyStar’s Joel Erickson):

Braden Smith's thoughts on his looming extension are short and matter of fact: "I just let my agent handle that. That's what he gets paid to do. I get paid to play football."
