Clint Session: Breakthrough Player

I believe we called that one.

An AFC personnel man I spoke to this week praised Session as a pass-rusher and coverage defender.

“I thought he really came on. He’s a heck of a young player,” the personnel man said. “He’s got good instincts. He’s physical. He’s a good blitzer, he times his blitzes out. He’s a short, compact guy.

“He and Brackett, you can barely see the guys they are so short and compact and quick and explosive. I think that tandem has really solidified their linebacking corps. He’s done a really good job for them.”

The Colts don’t play again until a week from Saturday night. If Session does in the playoffs what he did during the regular season, more recognition will come. The Colts’ roll call of stars could have no choice but to grow by one.
