Jim Irsay, the longtime owner and CEO of the Indianapolis Colts, has passed away at 65. Known for his passionate leadership and deep ties to the NFL community, Irsay played a pivotal role in shaping the Colts' identity—from their move to Indianapolis to their Super Bowl XLI victory. His death marks the end of an era for the franchise and leaves a void in the league.

Editor’s Note: Losing a figure like Irsay isn’t just about the Colts—it’s a moment that resonates across the entire NFL. He wasn’t just an owner; he was a larger-than-life personality who influenced team culture, league decisions, and even philanthropy. For fans, this is like losing a cornerstone of the franchise’s modern history. And for the Colts organization, the challenge now is navigating a future without the man who’s been at the helm for decades.
