The Indianapolis Colts hope to hear from veteran left tackle Anthony Castonzo soon regarding his decision on retirement as he continues to work through the process.
While at the Senior Bowl on Tuesday for the first day of practice, head coach Frank Reich gave an update on the situation without actually giving an update on the decision.
“I know he’s working through that decision,” Reich said at the Senior Bowl. “Hopefully there will be some news before too long. We’ll see how that plays out.”
Castonzo enjoyed arguably his best season anchoring the blindside on the Colts offensive line. He was one of the reasons the unit has been held in such high regard across the league—some even calling it the best offensive line in football.
As the trend of players retiring younger and younger, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Castonzo hang it up. If he does, that would be a major problem for the Colts, who would have to add another need to the long list that already exists.
Castonzo is the veteran leader of the offensive line, but he continues to go through his process of making the crucial decision.
