Since 1965, only one set of rookie teammates has made an All-Pro team. Those teammates were Dick Butkus and Gale Sayers. That is no longer the case. The Colts have changed that course. Darius Leonard and Quenton Nelson were both named to the AP All-Pro team today.
Nelson has been outstanding all year long, not missing a single snap. He was also named to the Pro Bowl as a rookie as well. Everyone has seen the value that he brings to the offensive line and know that he is going to be a key cog on that line for years to come.
