Related: About this forumColts' D'Qwell Jackson doesn't know what happened to football that spurred deflate-gate
http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/colts--d-qwell-jackson-doesn-t-know-what-happened-to-football-that-spurred-deflategate-144612645.htmlFive minutes into the second quarter of the AFC title game, Colts linebacker D'Qwell Jackson picked off Tom Brady on a pass intended for Rob Gronkowski. On the field, the turnover gave Indianapolis a chance to keep the score close; at that point, the Colts were already down 14-0 and were deep in Indy territory when Jackson got the pick.
On the sidelines, the ball, which Jackson held onto as a memento, became the catalyst for the months-long saga known as deflate-gate, after a Colts equipment manager measured the ball's pressure and told team officials. General manager Ryan Grigson went to league executives on hand at Gillette Stadium for the game, and within hours word spread that the Patriots would be investigated.
But whither that initial football?
I have not received it. Thats the mystery ball, Jackson said on Wednesday, according to the Boston Globe. If you could tell me where it is, you would do me a huge favor.
