Colts to add Jim Irsay to Ring of Honor during season opener

The Indianapolis Colts will induct former owner Jim Irsay in their Ring of Honor during the team's season opener on Sept. 7.

The Colts announced Irsay's planned induction Friday, the day he would have turned 66. Irsay died May 21.

"There was no bigger advocate for the Colts, the NFL, the city of Indianapolis and the state of Indiana than our dad, Jim Irsay," Irsay's daughters and new team owners Carlie Irsay-Gordon, Casey Foyt and Kalen Jackson said in a statement. "It's only fitting that he now joins the other amazing Colts legends in our Ring of Honor who contributed so much to our franchise and our community over the past four decades.
