The Indianapolis Colts have re-signed linebacker Gary Brackett to a five-year deal worth $33 million.
The contract includes a guaranteed $12 million for the seven-year NFL veteran.
Brackett had a big 2009 season that saw him help carry the Colts defense deep into the postseason.
Many have started to look at Brackett as not just a good player on his team, but one of the best linebackers in the game.
Being a starting middle linebacker and the team captain, Brackett was looking to get paid appropriately, and the Colts rewarded him.

Indianapolis Colts starting quarterback Peyton Manning underwent a procedure to relieve a pinched nerve in his neck.
The procedure sounds a lot more serious than it really is, and he is expected to be 100 percent for all offseason activities.
Manning has been dealing with the injury for the past four years, but it was starting to bother him more of late.
The team said the pinched nerve never interfered with his ability to practice or to play in games.
This is now the second time in the past three years that Manning has undergone offseason surgery.
