Redirect Chain Issue?

I keep getting a "Redirect Chain" issue with my contact us page and not sure how to resolve it. I checked my redirect plugin and contact us page is not on there. Not sure where to go on this does anyone have an idea?

Hey there, Dave from the Help Team!
I can see you have a redirect chain in place from http to https to trailing slash URL: http://www.ctgmanagedit.com/contact > https://www.ctgmanagedit.com/contact > https://www.ctgmanagedit.com/contact/
We report these because anytime a chain could be rewritten as a single rule, it will help to improve link equity and user experience.
Hopefully that helps, if you need more clarification, let us know here or feel free to write in to us at help@moz.com!

Sometimes the http to https redirect can't be avoided. It depends on where you host your website.
Check your code and make sure every reference to /contact/ ends with a trailing slash. That should do the job.
