Guessing he'll get eased into it, but of course stranger things have happened.

He played SEC teams (Missouri, LSU) and held up against them, also played well in the Senior Bowl. From what I've heard,, his medicals dropped him for a lot of teams, also he's a bit older than the average rookie at age 25. Either way, he's someone the Colts would've been comfortable taking at 42, and some outlets even had a first round grade on him.
