With the Indianapolis Colts season being over, players have some extra time on their hands. 

And it seems Colts' LB E.J. Speed decided to have some fun on social media with some of his.

The play Speed's photo references is from the 2nd matchup between the Colts and the Tennesee Titans this past season. It's the only one of the two in which the Titans started rookie QB Will Levis against the Colts. 

You hear players always say that they are willing to put their bodies on the line to help their team win, but you don't always see it. In this play, Levis puts this on full display as he leaves his feet in the middle of the field to pick up the first down for the Titans. 

This play showed just how much grit Levis possesses, but it also showed his questionable decision-making at the QB position. While QBs using their legs is now a normal part of the NFL, they have to protect themselves. And doing what Levis did in that play, is something no team wants to see their starting QB do on the regular. Speed tweeted again on the play after a fan pointed out how random this post by the Colts LB was. 

Speed has always had a really good sense of humor, so I'm not shocked that he is able to laugh at this type of crazy play. But if I had to guess, part of what makes this funny is that he, like many of us who watched the play, is probably Speed asking himself why in the world Levis attempted that.
