March 5 is slipping nearer and with it impending unrestricted free agency for Gary Brackett, but the Indianapolis Colts linebacker's agent, Brian Mackler, and Colts president Bill Polian are speaking. "Gary has expressed his great desire to retire a Colt," Mackler said Friday. "I'm going to do my best to honor his wishes and Bill and I are going to continue to talk." Brackett is a seven-year veteran and the Colts' defensive captain and signal caller, but the Colts historically haven't paid top money to keep their linebackers. "When you have a situation with Gary's presence in the locker room, what he means to the community, that he's been fortunate to play in two Super Bowls, won a ton of games, it's a great opportunity, a great place for Gary to finish," Mackler said. "But it's really up to Bill and I to get this thing done." Source: Indianapolis Star
