Mike Adams embracing mentor role with Colts' young safeties

Mike Adams has been a very important player for the Indianapolis Colts over the past two years. He has been a reliable starter, has made two straight Pro Bowls, and has provided a veteran presence on the defensive side of the football.

Now more than ever, that veteran presence is needed for the team's secondary, as they have several young safeties that the Colts are looking to develop. As such, Adams has had to step into an even bigger mentor role than he has in recent years.

“Great mentor, a ton of knowledge obviously and experience," head coach Chuck Pagano said on Tuesday of Adams.
