The Indianapolis Colts have agreed to a two-year, $46 million contract extension with defensive tackle DeForest Buckner, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.
Buckner was entering the final year of a four-year, $84-million deal he signed with the Colts after he was acquired from the San Francisco 49ers. Indianapolis traded the 13th-overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft for Buckner.
Since joining the Colts, Buckner has earned two Pro Bowl nods and was named a first-team All-Pro in 2020.
In eight seasons, Buckner has recorded 61 sacks, 544 tackles, 80 tackles for loss and 161 QB hits.
