The Colts are naming Jeff Saturday as their interim coach, per source

Quote:
The Colts bypass two former NFL head coaches already on staff — Gus Bradley, John Fox — and a rising head-coaching candidate in Bubba Ventrone, to name former center Jeff Saturday the interim coach.

That is a real sentence.

From what I've heard, wouldn't be stunned if this is more of an audition for Jeff Saturday than your typical interim role.

As in: Colts want to see if he could be the full-time answer at head coach. Why else go outside the building with other qualified candidates?

As best as I can tell, Jeff Saturday becomes the first person in NFL history to be named a head coach without any coaching experience at either the NFL or college level.

He now takes over in Indy. . . . . SEE UPDATE BELOW

Perhaps the second such hire, as Bill Barnwell notes that Norm Van Brocklin went immediately from his MVP season in 1960 playing for the Eagles to coaching the Vikings in 1961.

An outside the box hire in Indy as they look to get their season on track.
