Colts owner Jim Irsay shows his team’s NFL draft hand

Was Irsay genuinely showing his hand or attempting some sleight of hand?

Jim Irsay is consistently one of the most visible and public-facing NFL owners. The Colts head honcho is also quite emotionally invested in his team as an involved party.

Earlier this offseason, Irsay made it clear he expects his franchise will select a quarterback with its first-round draft pick. Irsay showed the same hand in a provocative tweet on Sunday.

Irsay declared,

“For the ’23 draft, we have many options. With the #4 pick, we could stay put and take a QB—-or trade up and take a QB—-OR trade down and MAYBE take a QB—-Or NOT🙂
All options on the table, but we like our position and are very excited. Fire up! 🏈”

The tweet makes one wonder, is Irsay showing his hand, or is this some smoky sleight of hand? We’ll find out in 10 days.
