Well, it technically was a deflection, but in Chicago facing the Bears, former Michigan LB Jordan Glasgow got the job done for his Indianapolis Colts.
While many questioned the Colts taking college football’s surest tackler in the 2020 NFL Draft, Michigan football fans who paid attention to his ascension knew that he would be a pro on special teams at the next level. After all, that’s how he made his star-turn as a Wolverine before earning the starting WILL linebacker job his fifth-year in Ann Arbor.
He’s made a tackle in each of the past two games for the Colts, but took it to another level on Sunday in Chicago, getting to the punter and helping Indy earn excellent field position by deflecting the ball on fourth down.

Chris Ballard drafted Glasgow for his special teams ability. If he does nothing else this blocked punt justifies that decision. #ForTheShoe#DaBears#INDvsCHI pic.twitter.com/57IevwkLIi
