Alabama A&M alum, Colts LB Robert Mathis surpasses 100-career sack mark

INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana  --  Once a fifth-round draft pick, Alabama A&M product, Indianapolis Colts defensive lineman Robert Mathis moved into an elite class of pass rushers with two sacks in his team's 34-28 upset of previously unbeaten Seattle Sunday.

Mathis got to Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson twice to eclipse and surpass the 100-sack plateau with his 100th and 101st sacks of his now 11-year and finished the game with six stops.

The 6-foot-2, 246-pound enters a fraternity that includes only 29 other players.



The 32-year old is tied with Houston's Mario Williams and Kansas City's Justin Houston for the league lead in sacks with 7.5 and has 18 tackles through five games.
