The Indianapolis Colts and RB Nyheim Hines have agreed to a three-year extension through 2024 his agents Ed Wasielewski and Jeremy Appledorf of EMG Sports tell ESPN.
The deal carries an average value of $6.2M, making Hines one of the top 10 highest-paid running backs in the NFL - and the most money per year for any non-lead back.
Hines has 170 catches during his first three seasons, sixth most amongst all running backs during that stretch. He also owns a 14.9 yards per punt return average, which would rank first all time in NFL history.
