The Colts have exercised the fifth-year option in Kwity Paye’s contract, locking in the defensive end for the 2025 season, Joel Erickson of the Indianapolis Star reports. Paye is eligible for the fifth-year option because of his status as a first-round pick in 2021, and the Colts had until Thursday to exercise the option. Under the option, Paye will be paid a fully guaranteed $13.4 million in 2025.
