Jim Irsay’s death has left Tony Dungy heartbroken.

The former Indianapolis head coach joined Pro Football Talk Live on Thursday to reflect on his relationship with the franchise’s longtime owner, who died Wednesday at the age of 65, including a recent missed connection between the two.

“I was really rocked when I heard it last night,” Dungy said. “Jim invited me up to speak to the rookies two weeks ago, and I spoke to their rookie camp, but my plane was late, about 30 minutes late, and I didn’t get a chance to go stop by and see him. I can’t believe that would’ve been my last opportunity. I was really heart broken when I heard it. Such a good man and special in my life.”
