Jim Irsay is quite possibly the most cryptic owner in the NFL today and, after his late night tweets on Thursday, the CEO of the Indianapolis Colts didn't exactly clear things up. The team released the statement Irsay alluded to on Friday, but it wasn't one that answered many questions.
Irsay posted Thursday night on Twitter that "Peyton has not passed our physical nor has he been cleared to play for The Indianapolis Colts. Team statement coming on Friday."
The Colts posted the following statement on their website Friday afternoon:
Peyton Manning, Jim Irsay and the entire Colts family remain close and unified as we continue to work through all the options that relate to his future with the Colts.
The present focus is on the Super Bowl and the great game that awaits.
The statement is fine, but it doesn't address Manning's injury, the issues around the Colts involving the quarterback's situation or anything else fans were expecting to hear when Irsay announced he was planning to release the statement.
It'll be interesting to see what's next, but apparently we'll be kept in the dark for the immediate future.
