The Indianapolis Colts’ lost a staple of their offensive line shortly after the regular season, as longtime left tackle Anthony Castonzo announced his retirement.
The decision was viewed as a bombshell among fans, and understandably so. While Castonzo dealt with his fair share of injuries in recent seasons, he was still dominating at the position and was approaching his age-33 season, which isn’t that old for an OL.
