Dwight Freeney bestows Hall of Fame honor on Jim Irsay

Few owners can say they have the type of relationship with players that Jim Irsay has with the Indianapolis Colts. The recent request from Hall of Fame defensive end Dwight Freeney furthers that notion.

Irsay has been the presenter at the Hall of Fame induction ceremony for two of his players over the last decade. First, it was wide receiver Marvin Harrison in 2016. Then, it was running back Edgerrin James in 2020.

Now, the legendary Freeney will be added to the list of players who requested Irsay present them at their Hall of Fame induction.

Freeney was voted into the Hall of Fame as a part of the Class of 2024. He will officially be enshrined into Canton during the ceremony on Aug. 3.
