OPENING PITCH
The opening kickoff.
Of the opening game.
And what was essentially a non-contact injury.
Nick Westbrook's 2017 season was over before it truly began. He got to run down the field once, and that was it.
So Indiana's Hoosiers were suddenly and stunningly deprived of their leading returning receiver.
Westbrook is still wearing a blue jersey in practice these days, signifying a no-contact player, but he's back.
Back from his ACL tear, ahead of schedule, and looking ready to step back into the lead receiver role vacated by Simmie Cobbs Jr. -- who spent much of his week up at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis.
