Quenton Nelson Named To PFWA All-NFL Team

Indianapolis Colts guard Quenton Nelson was named to the PFWA All-NFL and All-AFC teams

For the third time in three years, Indianapolis Colts guard Quenton Nelson has been named to the All-NFL and All-AFC teams by the Football Writers Association of America. It continues what has thus far been a brilliant career by the former Notre Dame star blocker.

Nelson is the only holdover from the PFWA 2019 All-NFL team. He was joined on the first-team All-NFL squad by Green Bay Packers center Corey Linsley and offensive tackle David Bakhtiari, and Cleveland Browns guard Joel Bitonio and tackle Jack Conklin.

Nelson was the No. 6 overall draft pick of the Colts in the 2018 NFL Draft, which came a year after he earned unanimous All-American honors at Notre Dame. He quickly became one of the best blockers in the league. In his three seasons, Nelson has now earned three All-NFL honors from the PFWA, he's been a NFL All-Pro each season and he's been named to the Pro Bowl each season.

Former Notre Dame stars Zack Martin (Dallas Cowboys) and Ronnie Stanley (Baltimore Ravens) have made the list in the past, but both battled injuries this season.
