Pats Pulpit
Irsay passed away on Wedensday.
The New England Patriots have released a statement on behalf of their owner and CEO, Robert Kraft, about the passing of longtime Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay.
I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Jim Irsay. Jim was a passionate Colts fan whose love for the game of football was only matched by his love for music. He brought a unique spirit and energy into the room and had an unmistakable presence.
Jim’s boldness defined his legacy, not just as the steward of the Colts, but as someone who never shied away from being unapologetically himself. His contributions to our league and his compassion for his community will leave a lasting mark. On behalf of my family and the entire New England Patriots organization, I extend our deepest condolences to the Irsay family, the Colts organization, and all who knew and loved him.
Irsay passed away on Wednesday at the age of 65. He had owned the Colts since inheriting them from his father in 1997.
