Phillip Lindsay and Broncos react to historic Pro Bowl selection

Phillip Lindsay walked toward midfield late Saturday night, dejected in defeat when a Cleveland defender helped put his NFL journey into perspective.

Yes, the Broncos lost 17-16 at home, but Lindsay’s path from a torn ACL at Denver South High School, to almost no college recruiting attention, to no NFL Combine invite, to undrafted free agent, to starting Broncos’ running back nearing 1,000 yards rushing was incredible.

“A couple of the linebackers after the Browns game came up to me and said, ‘Our whole linebacker room voted for you for the Pro Bowl,” Lindsay said Wednesday.
