The Colts have locked up one of their most important players for years to come.
Left tackle Bernhard Raimann, a former tight end at Central Michigan who has blossomed into one of the team's most indispensable pieces, signed a four-year contract extension worth $100 million, a team source confirmed.
Raimann, a 2022 third-round pick, was entering the final year of his rookie contract but the extension keeps him off the market next spring. He has shown dramatic improvement in each year of his career and last season took a leap that demonstrated he could man the critical position for the foreseeable future.
