Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay announced on Monday night that coach Chuck Pagano and general manager Ryan Grigson would return for the 2016 season, an action counter to news reports and speculation on the future of the NFL franchise.
In the debate over Grigson's future as the Colts' GM, his trade for running back Trent Richardson was cited by detractors as one of the reasons that Indianapolis should let him go.
On Sept. 18, 2013, the Colts traded their first-round choice in the 2014 NFL Draft to the Cleveland Browns for Richardson.
