INDIANAPOLIS — Chad Kelly insists a few months away from football helped put life in perspective.
He read the Bible while living in his parents’ basement. He recommitted himself to the game. And now he believes he can avoid any more trouble off the field.
The once-promising young quarterback thinks his latest humbling experience will help jump-start his career with the Indianapolis Colts in what even he acknowledges could be his last NFL chance.
“You just have to put in enough work for those guys to trust you because it’s going to take some time,” he said Wednesday.
