Irsay was admitted to an out-of-state medical facility for inpatient treatment after his arrest, prompting the postponement of his initial hearing and the filing of formal charges. Irsay declined to discuss specifics of his situation during a 12-minute meeting with reporters at the Spring League Meeting in Atlanta, where he took part in Indianapolis' unsuccessful bid to host Super Bowl LII. Irsay could be subject to NFL discipline connected to his criminal case. NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy released a statement on the matter late Friday. "The NFL's Personal Conduct Policy applies to all league personnel and holds all of us accountable," McCarthy said. "We are reviewing the matter and will take appropriate action in accordance with the policy."
