The Indianapolis Colts released kicker Matt Gay on Thursday after he spent the past two seasons with the team.
This decision came as a shocking move to the NFL world as Gay still has two years left on his monumental four-year, $22.5 million contract. When he signed the deal back in 2023, he became the highest-paid kicker at the time. He now ranks fourth on the list.
During the 2024 season, Gay made 31-of-37 field goal attempts for 83.8%. The only six field goals he missed were from 50-59 yards. He made all 33 extra point attempts for the Colts.
We have released K Matt Gay.
