Colts to honor late owner Jim Irsay with signature jersey patch

The Indianapolis Colts will honor their late owner, Jim Irsay, by wearing a special black jersey patch throughout the 2025 season. The patch, announced by the team, features Irsay's initials and signature, including his signature smiley face, within a circle with seven grommets, inspired by the Colts' horseshoe logo. Irsay, who passed away at 65, became the NFL's youngest general manager at 25 and led the Colts as principal owner from 1997, achieving significant success including a Super Bowl win in 2006. His influence extended beyond the field, and the Colts aim to keep his legacy alive with this tribute.
