San Francisco 49ers starting free safety Adrian Colbert has had a lot of doubters throughout his football career. There were points in his life when nearly everything was going against him, literally. From his father being involved in gangs and drugs to being in a coma after a bike versus car accident at age nine, the odds seem to have always been heavily stacked against him.
Colbert transferred to Miami after three years at Texas and a less than pleasant experience with a coach. He only started 22 games in his college career getting some work on special teams as well as on defense.
