6. Defensive Lineman Art Jones: Snorlax

For the record, I don’t think Art Jones is overweight, sleepy, or lazy like his Pokémon counterpart. However, at a listed 6’3″, 320 pounds on the Colts roster, he’s definitely a big body, who’s also unfortunately been frequently “inactive”–having missed 23 games over the past two seasons.

Make no mistake about it though, like Snorlax when “active”, Jones has the brute strength and power to be a run-stuffing difference maker for the Colts defensive line.

Don’t wake this sleeping giant! Only difference is Snorlax would stop the Pokémon buffet line, while Jones sticks to purely opposing running backs–swallowing them in their tracks.
