Related Topics: Free agent

Al Woods is one of the new-comers on the Colts defensive line. He was brought in from the Tennessee Titans to be the new nose tackle in the 3-4 defense. Chris Ballard seemed happy to bring the big man in to have a more veteran presence on the line, but how did he do in his first season with the Colts?

Woods is a big body, which is what you want to have at the nose tackle position. Typically, you want the nose tackle to assume double teams, and that’s exactly what Woods did. He was able to gobble up the middle well, commanding multiple linemen almost every time he was on the field.
