Colts assistants Indianapolis fans barely know are becoming difference makers
Las Vegas Raiders v Indianapolis Colts - NFL 2025 | Michael Hickey/GettyImagesShane Steichen came to the Indianapolis Colts as an offensive coach. He had a coordinator and a plethora of position coaches, but he knew that if there were any problems on the offensive side of the ball, it would ultimately fall on him to fix them. On defense, it was a different story.
Steichen had veteran coordinator Gus Bradley already in place running the defense when he arrived in 2023. After struggling in 2024, the head coach decided to go in a different direction and thus brought in Lou Anarumo, formerly defensive coordinator in Cincinnati. Along with Anarumo came three new defensive assistants.
