The Indianapolis Colts have officially signed rookie safety AJ Haulcy to his first NFL contract, and Over the Cap has the full breakdown of the deal and its salary cap implications. This is a key addition for a Colts secondary looking to add depth and playmaking ability.

The four-year contract is worth a total of $7.082 million, averaging out to $1.770 million per season. While none of the deal is fully guaranteed, Haulcy received a solid $1.611 million signing bonus—a strong vote of confidence from the front office.

Looking at the year-by-year structure, Haulcy will earn a base salary of $885,000 in the 2026 season. That figure climbs steadily each year, reaching $1.850 million in the final year of the deal in 2029. The signing bonus will be prorated across the contract's lifespan, counting $402,809 against the cap each season—a manageable hit that gives the Colts flexibility.

On the field, Haulcy brings a ballhawking mentality to the secondary. Known for his instincts and ability to create turnovers, he also offers valuable versatility, capable of filling multiple roles depending on the defensive scheme. He'll have a real opportunity to compete for the starting safety spot alongside Cam Bynum, adding both competition and depth to the position.

For Colts fans, this signing is another piece of the puzzle as the team builds a young, dynamic defense. With a cap-friendly contract and a skill set that fits modern NFL defenses, Haulcy could be a name to watch in training camp.
