INDIANAPOLIS -- Howard Mudd is 77 years old, and he easily could be enjoying retirement by riding his motorcycle across the country after more than 40 years in the NFL as a player and coach.
In fact, Mudd didn’t think he would ever return to Indianapolis after he left following the 2009 season.
“Me coming back? No chance," he said. “For what?"
But there was Mudd earlier this week, using a cane to walk into the Indianapolis Colts' media room, sitting down and talking about what drew him back to the franchise where he spent 12 years.
