Colts will interview Joe Cullen, Chris Harris for defensive coordinator this weekend

INDIANAPOLIS — The search for the Colts’ next defensive coordinator is already underway.

Indianapolis will interview Jacksonville defensive coordinator Joe Cullen and Washington defensive backs coach Chris Harris this weekend, days after former defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus was hired to be the head coach in Chicago.

Two more defensive assistants, linebackers coach Dave Borgonzi and cornerbacks coach James Rowe, are headed to Chicago with Eberflus, and a third, safeties coach Alan Williams, is interviewing for the Bears’ defensive coordinator job, according to The MMQB.
