Countdown to Colts: Linebacker Zaire Franklin

We’re just 97 days away from the 2018 season for the Indianapolis Colts. Not only do we approach a day closer to kickoff, we get the second edition of the “Countdown to Colts” series. This time up, rookie linebacker Zaire Franklin.

Before his four years at Syracuse University, Franklin suited up as an Explorer for the La Salle College High School and was named to the 2013 PIAA AAAA All-State Team and was a 2013 AAAA All-Catholic League First Team selection in his senior year.

Making the jump to college, Franklin became the first three-time captain of the modern era at SU and the second in the program’s history.
