Colts HC Shane Steichen said the team plans to make a special run in order to honor late owner Jim Irsay this season.
“I’d like to start off with condolences to the entire Irsay family — prayers and thoughts with them during this time,” Steichen said, via PFT. “A lot of you guys knew Mr. Irsay really well and covered this team for a long time. I was with him for two years. Phenomenal human being. You guys know how generous he was. I told the team last week, every time I talked to him in the building, on the phone, every time, he would always tell me at the end, ‘Coach, whatever you need for this team and this organization. We’ve got you.’ That was the man he was. We’re going to honor this season for Jim, and we’re going to win for Jim this year.”
Jaguars DC Anthony Campanile highly praised first-round WR/CB Travis Hunter, saying he’s done a great job retaining information.
“He’s a really, really bright guy,” Campanile said, via John Oehser of the team’s site. “Everybody has been really impressed with his ability to retain the information. He has been out there with us on defense. He was on offense [Tuesday]. He has done a great job with that. I can’t imagine another guy being any better suited to handle that.”
Jaguars HC Liam Coen said Hunter has been doing well with their defensive unit.
