The Indianapolis Colts have targeted Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen to be their next head coach and plan to hire him if the sides can reach agreement on a contract, sources told ESPN
The Colts want to meet this coming week to see if they can complete a deal with Steichen, who now is their top target after Indianapolis informed other remaining candidates Sunday morning that they are out of the running for the job.
Steichen would become the second Eagles offensive coordinator hired by the Colts as their head coach. Frank Reich, who was fired by the Colts earlier this season, also was Philadelphia's offensive coordinator before being hired as Indianapolis' head coach in 2018. If Steichen and the Colts reach a deal, the Eagles would be expected to have his replacement already on their coaching staff, according to sources.
The Eagles also could potentially lose defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon, who is interviewing for the Cardinals' vacant head-coaching position, league sources told ESPN. It was uncertain as of Sunday morning how high Arizona's level of interest is in Gannon, or whether the sides could potentially agree to a deal.
