David Thornton sees new Colts job as more than helping young players transition to NFL
Posted Apr 15, 2012
The stories usually are special with David Thornton, whose ability to connect with people has brought him back to where he started in the NFL. On April 3, the Colts hired their 2002 fourth-round pick to help young players in their transition to the pro game. "When I look back over my career, it wasn't the wins, it wasn't the money and things like that I benefited from the most," he said.
