After ending his first start with 11 tackles, a sack, a tackle for loss, a quarterback hurry, and two pass deflections, Angerer got the good word from the man he replaced. “I thought that he did a good job,” Brackett said. “He got all the calls right, and that’s a tough enough job in a regular-season game. Everything moves so fast out there, it can be tough to take it all in. But he handled everything well.”
High praise for a team in which such things are expected. More than most teams, the Colts have proven the ability to have “replacement parts” ready when needed. Brackett is expected to start against the Texans after the Colts’ upcoming bye, but it’s clear that the backup plan is working — once again.
