A MASSIVE SETBACKA: NFL Report Colts finally trade Jelani Woods this morning before the upcoming NFL…
Welcome to the NFL, Jelani Woods.
On the same day that Jelani Woods caught his first-career touchdown, he hauled in a second touchdown with just 25 seconds remaining that ended up being the game-winner as Woods powered the Indianapolis Colts to a dramatic 20-17 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday afternoon.
Woods, a third round draft pick of the Colts after finishing his collegiate career with a First-Team All-ACC campaign at Virginia in 2021, opened the scoring in the first quarter by catching a 1-yard pass from Matt Ryan in the back of the end zone for the first touchdown of Woods’ NFL career.
Woods would only end up catching two passes the entire game, but both went for touchdowns and no play was more important than the one Woods made in the fourth quarter.
With just 30 seconds left and the Colts trailing the Chiefs 17-13, Matt Ryan targeted Jelani Woods in the end zone and Woods made the 12-yard touchdown catch, beating another former Wahoo, Juan Thornhill, in the process.
It’s a tough loss for Thornhill and the Chiefs, but what a day for Jelani Woods and Rodney McLeod, the heroes that gave the Indianapolis Colts their first win of the season.
