Per Mortensen, the deal is a five-year, $37.5 million contract with $20 million guaranteed.

Sanders' return from an injury was a huge part of the postseason defensive turnaround that led Indianapolis to a Super Bowl title a year ago, and he was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after this season.

Still, this is a risky move for the Colts. Injuries have limited Sanders to just 38 games in his four-year career, and the Colts already have a lot of money tied up in a few high-priced players.

With Sanders under contract, the Colts can now focus on a new deal for tight end Dallas Clark, who becomes a free agent after the season. Clark is likely to get the franchise tag if he and the team can't reach an agreement on a contract extension.

Told you that was getting done. COmon, you guys seriously thought Sanders would make it to Free Agency? lol
