The Indianapolis Colts apparently really want Ahmad Bradhsaw in their backfield. He’s been at their facilities talking about a deal and tweeted a picture of himself. And their back and forth has been in the news all weekend.
Despite having the reigning NFL Executive of the year, Ryan Grigson, manning their front office, Jim Irsay still is feels the need to try and land Bradshaw himself. And his choice of reaching out?
None other then the personal Twitter.

Drew Rosenhaus responded on Twitter very professionally, and less exciting than I had hoped for.
@JimIrsay wishing you a speedy recovery. We would like to get a deal done with you as well. Hopefully happens soon.

Some of the other Twitter responses were more funny though.

Still it is unclear what Irsay thinks is “serious coin” and what Drew Rosenhaus thinks is serious coin. I bet they aren’t the same though.
