Jeff Saturday: From pumping gas to the Colts Ring of Honor
Posted Sep 20, 2015
After every last one of the scouts at Jeff Saturday's North Carolina pro day told him he was too small and too slow, that his arms were too short, that he'd never sniff a single down in the NFL, he hopped in his car and headed to his afternoon shift at the Eastgate BP. That's where the All-ACC center worked in the summers, where he pumped gas, cleaned bathrooms and plugged tires.
