Gardner Minshew's contract with the Indianapolis Colts
Quarterback Gardner Minshew joined the Indianapolis Colts in 2023 after playing as a backup for the Philadelphia Eagles for two seasons.
Minshew and Indianapolis have a one-year, $3.5 million contract. According to Spotrac, a base salary of $1.75 million is included in the contract.
Although Minshew began the season as rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson's backup, he quickly assumed the starting position after the latter sustained a season-ending injury to his right shoulder.
Gardner Minshew has started all but four games for the Colts this season, who might be worried about him becoming a free agent in the off-season.
