Surprise in Indy: Former Packers C Jeff Saturday named Colts interim head coach

The Green Bay Packers are dealing with their own turmoil at the moment, but here’s a big surprise out of Indianapolis: After firing Frank Reich, the Colts have named former Packers center Jeff Saturday as the team’s interim coach.

Saturday, now 47, was a five-time Pro Bowler and four-time All-Pro with the Colts as a player between 1999 and 2011 but has never coached at the NFL level. He spent the 2012 season with the Packers and actually made a sixth Pro Bowl despite being benched in favor of Evan Dietrich-Smith in December of that season.

Overall, Saturday played 962 snaps for the Packers in 2012.
