Mike Adams Named AFC Defensive Player Of The Week

INDIANAPOLIS – The Colts second weekly award of 2015 came on Wednesday morning.

Safety Mike Adams earned AFC Defensive Player of the Week honors for Week Five, thanks to his two-interception night in Houston.

This marks the first time in Adams’ 12 NFL seasons that he has earned this award.

Last Thursday in the Colts 27-20 win over the Texans, Adams’ two interceptions came in Houston territory, including a fourth-quarter pick that stopped a potential game-tying touchdown drive.

Adams, who now has three interceptions on the season, joins Pat McAfee in the weekly honor award group this year for the Colts.
