Colt Anderson: From Griz to Eagle

Griz football does produce a lot of NFL players. Check out this story on Colt Anderson from The Missoulian, who has made a splash in Philadelphia this and looks to be on the team for at least a couple of more seasons. Chances are, he'll be making lots of plays on Sunday for years to come.

His fans in Montana probably figure Colt Anderson cemented a spot on the Philadelphia Eagles roster for years to come.


Why not? In eight regular-season games with the Eagles, Anderson earned two game balls and was voted a special teams captain for the playoffs.


Despite playing just half the season, the former Butte High Bulldog and Montana Grizzly tied for third with 12 special teams tackles.


He drew much praise from teammates, coaches and fans.


The All-American at the University of Montana is under contract with Philadelphia for two more seasons.

Hopefully the NFL's CBA gets all worked out so we can see him play next season.
