Tony Dungy no longer coaches the Colts, but that doesn’t mean religion is any less a topic during Super Bowl week.
“Coach (Jim) Caldwell comes out some mornings and throws a Bible verse on the board and you look at it and read it and you are like, ‘This is so similar, this has so much of a connection to our team and what I deal with throughout life,’ ” linebacker Clint Session said. “He is not only trying to teach us to be better players, he is teaching us how to be a man. Taking all those words that we will be able to use throughout, and after football. That is what he is trying to instill in us. When you take care of that, that is how life goes. Guys take care of business off the field, (and) the on-the-field business will be easy.”
Asked if it’s his role to bring Christianity into the locker room, Caldwell said: “I think it’s one of the things (the players) have to investigate. They’d have to find out for themselves. I know there’s a lot of questions sometimes. It just depends.
A lot of different backgrounds, a lot of different ideologies, but investigate it and see what Christ has for you.”
