Jim Irsay, the owner of the Indianapolis Colts, has made his first public comments about his health since January. The Colts announced that Irsay was being treated for a severe respiratory illness, but multiple reports also revealed that he was found unresponsive in his home due to a suspected overdose in December. Irsay took to social media to say that he is "on the mend" and grateful for the messages of love and support he has received. The Colts stated that he was receiving excellent care and asked for privacy. In a previous interview, Irsay admitted to struggling with addiction and mentioned a near-death experience that made him realize the severity of his situation. In 2014, he checked himself into rehab after being arrested and charged with driving under the influence and possession of controlled substances. He had his license suspended for a year and pleaded guilty to DUI, resulting in the dismissal of his felony charges. Irsay has been with the Colts since 1984 and has faced previous legal and personal struggles related to his addiction. His recent health issues have raised concerns about his well-being.
