McAfee earned two Pro Bowl selections (2014, 2016) and one All-Pro selection (2014) during his eight-year career in Indy. He played in all 16 games every season until his retirement before the 2017 campaign.
Of his 575 career punts, 193 of them were downed inside the 20-yard line. He also averaged 46.4 yards per punt while recording a career-high 49.4 during his final season.
McAfee brought a charismatic persona to the position—a spot that rarely gets any recognition. But his run with the Colts was great and strong enough to earn the highest-graded spot of the decade from Pro Football Focus.
