Colts punter: Whalen didn't practice trick play

INDIANAPOLIS -- Colts receiver Griff Whalen was not supposed to be the center on the botched fake punt play that Indianapolis attempted Sunday against the Patriots, according to punter Pat McAfee.

McAfee, making his weekly radio appearance on the "Bob & Tom Show" in Indianapolis on Tuesday, said rookie Clayton Geathers was supposed to be the center on the play, but he was out of the game with a knee injury.

"The gunner who became the center all week was Clayton Geathers," McAfee said during the radio show.
