On NFL Honors Night, Our ‘Indianapolis Colts Honors’ Awards
Defensive Rookie of the Year: DE Henry Anderson
While Henry Anderson‘s season was cut short with a season-ending knee injury, the rookie defensive end was arguably the team’s best defensive lineman before his injury.
In 9 starts, Anderson had 31 tackles and 1 sack. However, that doesn’t paint the entire picture.
According to ProFootballFocus, Anderson was the 14th best rated defensive end in football with a +12.6 overall grade. He was the team’s best run stuffer, as he finished with a +10.2 run stopping grade overall.
Honorable Mention: NT David Parry
