Jeff Saturday Had To Give Up His Fantasy Football Team After Becoming The Colts Head Coach, So He Handed Ownership Over To Eric Decker

It has been documented all week long how unprecedented the Jeff Saturday hire was for the Indianapolis Colts. He had no coaching experience at the professional level, yet owner Jim Irsay gave the six-time Pro Bowler the keys to the car for the rest of the season. 

There are a of lot changes once you're an NFL head coach: your work schedule, your travel time, etc. And another major move that Jeff Saturday had to make this week was a change an ownership for his… fantasy football team? That's right.

I mean, this makes sense for obvious reasons. 1) Jeff Saturday's schedule just got a little bit busier as he is now the head coach of the Colts. 2) I'm going to go ahead and assume it's illegal for NFL Head Coaches to play Fantasy Football (for money at least). 

Now another question I have: how much experience does Eric Decker have playing Fantasy Football? He certainly helped tons of people out during his career when he was on the Broncos and Jets, but what about in the owner role?

It is unknown if this Saturday-Decker team has Jonathan Taylor on its roster, but if it is, they are scoring some BIG TIME points…

Was the team Saturday and Decker are playing going against Sam Ehlinger? Maybe that's the reason for this surprise start by Matt Ryan. People are wondering…
