Image courtesy of the Indianapolis Colts Sunday was a surreal day for Indianapolis Colts defensive end Kwity Paye. Paye – a former Michigan Wolverine and Bishop Hendricken star – was back in New England as an NFL player for the first time when the Patriots hosted the Colts on Sunday.

The good thing about playing quarterback for the Jacksonville Jaguars during the preseason is you’re going to get time to play with Trevor Lawrence on the bench. The bad thing is that you’re playing behind the Jacksonville Jaguars’ backup offensive line.

Likely was a huge part of the ridiculous Crimson Tide offense that was the state’s top-rated unit, winning the Division I Super Bowl.

Tuesday morning BC players quickly ran from the locker room inside Alumni Stadium to Fish Field House trying to beat the early frigid temperatures. There was yelling, singing, full sprints and some light jogs.
