We don't have access to the backroom negotiations between Andrew Luck's people and the Indianapolis Colts, but it was strange to hear his contract was being held up by marketing language.
Jim Irsay claims a deal is close. The Colts owner on Saturday denied a report by Len Pasquarelli, which stated Luck's representatives were clashing over details around Luck's off-field endorsements. One source with knowledge of the talks indicated Luck would "have to clear" marketing proposals with Colts heavies.
