“I am heartbroken to hear of the passing of Matt Ulrich,” Irsay posted on X on Wednesday morning. “Matt was with us only two seasons, but left his mark on many. Great guy, I hear he was a great dad — and he was a Super Bowl champ. My prayers to his family.”

Ulrich signed with the Colts as an ungrafted agent and played for them from 2005-06, winning a Super Bowl ring following Indianapolis’ win over the Bears in Super Bowl XLI.
