Indy, We Have a Problem…
Today ESPN’s Chris Mortensen is reporting that Indianapolis Colts left tackle Tarik Glenn has informed the team he will retire and will not report for training camp. Glenn has been a mainstay on the Colts’ offensive line for 10 years and been a key to the excellent pass protection afforded quarterback Peyton Manning.
Mortensen goes onto say that there are no other accomplished left tackles on the Indianapolis roster, and few quality veterans remaining among the free agents who are still looking for work.
When asked to comment on this news, Talking NFL had this to say:
(deep breath)
Ah…
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
(deep breath)
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
“I hate your blind side pass protection options, Peyton.”

I’m actually a bit dissapointed — I didn’t want the Pats superbowl victory to have no challenges along the way, but this certainly makes it a bit harder for the Colts to give em a challenge.

Sorry, but after that AFC Title Game, I’ll take whatever advantage we can get…
It wouldn’t be funny if he was missing the season due to injury. But deciding to retire AFTER free agency and the draft? Now THAT’S comedy!
