“I am just playing football, that’s it,” the Denver Broncos running back said after becoming the first undrafted player in NFL history to eclipse 100 yards from scrimmage in each of his first two NFL games.
The 5-foot-8, 190-pound sparkplug was undeterred when he wasn’t invited to the NFL combine and was bypassed by 32 teams in the draft despite piling up nearly 5,000 yards from scrimmage and scoring 39 touchdowns at the University of Colorado.
“I mean, since when have I not been the underdog?” Lindsay said after signing a $15,000 bonus this spring to try out for his hometown Broncos.
