Colts LB Shaq Leonard:
"I’m gonna say this because I’ve seen it all on social media: if I’m ready to go, I’m gonna play. Everybody know me: I love this game. Love it with all my heart, I’d do anything to play this game for 100 years..."

"(I’ve been) practicing 4 weeks.
People gotta understand the 1st week, it was just nothing but stiffness.
2nd week, OK, now, how can I cover ground?
3rd week, OK, lemme see how can I tackle? Can I tackle in space? Can I move left to right? Can I do the things I’m supposed to do."

But if I think that my ability is putting the team in trouble? I gotta respect my decision to say OK, Zaire (Franklin) is playing a whole lot faster, the defense would be better with me standing on the sideline. It’s me looking myself in the mirror and telling the coaches that."
