The young center is playing out his fifth-year option this season and should get a hefty contract extension soon.

Former GM Ryan Grigson made some bad decisions when it came to building the team for long term success. He would draft flashy players instead of bringing in the smart pick. Evidence of that is the fact that only four of his draftees are still on the roster.

One of those draftees is Ryan Kelly, who was the Colts’ first-round pick in 2016. He was the right pick made too late, as the damage on Andrew Luck had already been done.
