Irsay's condition sparked a 911 call and subsequent hospitalization, with his oxygen levels significantly below normal.

  • Colts owner Jim Irsay was found unresponsive at his home in Indiana on December 8, with fears of congestive heart failure.
  • Pete Ward, the Chief Operating Officer of the Colts, called 911 and reported that Irsay was 'bluish in color' and had 'labored' breathing.
  • Upon arrival, Ward found that Irsay's oxygen saturation level was at 71%, significantly below the normal 95-100% rate.
  • The police report labeled the situation as a possible 'overdose' and 'overdose/poisoning', and Irsay was transported to a nearby hospital for life-saving efforts.
