It’s hard for an offensive guard to become a player that changes the direction of a franchise. Yet, after being taken sixth overall in the 2018 NFL Draft, Quenton Nelson has done exactly that for the Indianapolis Colts.
After countless highlight blocks and dominating plays while at Notre Dame, Nelson made an immediate impact in Indianapolis last season.
NFL Films did a feature on Nelson, finding video from his youth and playing various sports long before his days at Notre Dame, that show you a side of him you’ve never seen.
What did a young Quenton Nelson want to be when he grew up?
“Big.”
Mission accomplished, @BigQ56. 🤣

The Colts don’t appear to be headed back to the post-season this year but for some reason I have a strong belief that they’ll be right back to being a contender again next year when they enter the season on opening day with a much better setup at quarterback than the way they entered this season.
Until next time, RUN THE DAMN BALL.
