Inside linebacker had a career-high 17 total tackles on Sunday.
D'Qwell Jackson is keeping rather busy.
The Indianapolis Colts’ inside linebacker leads the NFL with 47 tackles in four games. And the 10th-year pro admitted Tuesday his body is sore from every one of them. Not that he's complaining. That's the job.
