Undrafted rookie lineman started against the Colts Aaron Wilson
Prior to the NFL draft, offensive tackle Jeff Linkenbach visited the Baltimore Ravens, Indianapolis Colts, Chicago Bears and had private workouts with the Miami Dolphins and Bears offensive line coach Mike Tice.
Ultimately, Linkenbach went undrafted out of the University of Cincinnati and signed with the Colts as a priority free agent.
Now, the former second-team All-Big East Conference selection is under consideration for a roster spot or at least a practice squad spot.
The 6-foot-6, 312-pounder filled in with the first-team offense at left guard against the Buffalo Bills on Thursday night.
He played left tackle with the second-team offense and right tackle with the third-string to conclude the game, playing a ton of snaps.
The Colts are evaluating Linkenbach closely even though they had the option of moving Tony Ugoh to left guard and having Adam Terry at left tackle.
Linkenbach drew high marks from NFL teams even though he wasn't invited to the NFL scouting combine.

I wish him only the best. Get well, young man.
This stuff happens, didn't cause Terrell Davis to retire, as that actually was the knee injury he sustained while tackling a Jet on an INT - that being said he was always and the donkeys cognizant of this issue with Daivs as well...migraines and nuerological problems are real for damn sure and don't make an NFL players life any easier - and seriously "karma" - give it a rest already - Favre's not the devil, hasn't been sighted hanging with Lucifer or sacrificying any virgins - well lately anyway - that was the "before PG Favre" that's marketed for mass consumption...
