Jack Doyle and Mo Alie-Cox have combined for more than 1,100 snaps in each of the last 3 seasons. With Doyle gone, Alie-Cox wasn’t going to be able to take all of those snaps.

Enter Woods.

OC Marcus Brady coached him at the Shrine Bowl and the Colts had been interested in him ever since.

Colts third-round pick Jelani Woods, explaining how he switched from QB to TE while at Oklahoma St....

He was asked once to play Mark Andrews on the scout team and "pretty much killed our starting defense."

Coaches asked him to switch to TE the next day.
