Former San Francisco 49ers defensive end Samson Ebukam reached an agreement on a three-year deal with the Indianapolis Colts that is worth a maximum of $27 million, his agents confirmed to ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Jeremy Fowler.
The deal includes over $11 million in the first year.
Ebukam spent the past two seasons as the starting end opposite Nick Bosa after signing a two-year, $12 million deal with the 49ers as a free agent in 2021.
He proved to be a solid run defender and pass rusher as the counterpart to Bosa, finishing with 9.5 sacks, 74 tackles and a pair of forced fumbles in 32 regular-season games.
Before joining the Niners, Ebukam played for the Los Angeles Rams, who selected him with the 125th pick in the 2017 draft. For his career, Ebukam, who turns 28 on May 9, has played 96 games with 224 tackles, 23.5 sacks and 8 forced fumbles, including 5 recoveries.
