Colts nab Antonio Morrison, who was once arrested for barking at police dog

Here’s a look at linebacker Antonio Morrison, the second of two fourth-round draft picks by the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday.

My take: The Colts needed to add some depth at inside linebacker after losing Jerrell Freeman to Chicago in March and with D’Qwell Jackson being 32 years old. Morrison, like Jackson, knows how to pursue the ball. He had 101 and 103 tackles, respectively, in his final two seasons at Florida. Morrison suffered multiple torn ligaments, including his ACL, in his knee during his junior season. The injury was supposed to keep him out at least 10 months, but he had a quick recovery.
