Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay has a lot of money and he’s eager to spend it ... so eager that it took him away from tweeting about pop music for a while Thursday.
The immediate speculation centered on Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Mike Wallace and Jacksonville Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew, who is in the midst of a holdout that threatens to extend into the regular season.
By late last night, however, the Indianapolis Star was reporting that the Colts were looking for a cornerback, sice they have a need on the left side, opposite Jerraud Powers. A couple of possibilities thrown out by the Star: the Dallas Cowboys’ Mike Jenkins and the Miami Dolphins’ Vontae Davis.
Colts General Manager Ryan Grigson has made moves for cornerbacks — he traded for Cassius Vaughn, D.J. Johnson and Josh Gordy, signed Justin King as a free agent and added Korey Lindsay off waivers — but they aren’t the kind of player that would get Irsay’s pulse racing. An offensive lineman may be a possibility, Mike Chappell writes.
This much is certain: Irsay is ready to rock and roll.
