Kwity Paye

Colts exercised the fifth-year option for EDGE Kwity Paye.

Paye has shown steady improvement over each of his first three years in the league and posted career highs in tackles (52) and sacks (8.5) last season. The Colts selected Paye with the No. 21 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft and have reaped the early benefits of that pick. Paye has totaled 18.5 sacks in his career, along with 29 TFLs. For a player who was considered a raw talent after making just 19 college starts, the sky continues to be the limit for Paye, who could be in for a career-year in 2024.
