Colts draft Clemson safety T.J. Green in second round of NFL Draft

With the 57th overall pick in the NFL Draft, the Colts selected Clemson safety T.J. Green.

The Indianapolis Colts traded the 48th overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft to the Green Bay Packers, gaining the Packers' second round pick and two additional selections. With that second round choice - 57th overall - the Colts selected Clemson safety T.J. Green.

Green was a fast-riser in the draft process and is a former wide receiver turned safety who could potentially play cornerback as well, giving the Colts some versatility with the defensive back.
