Report: Former Colts Head Coach Frank Reich Was Fired Over the Phone by Jim Irsay

According to Fox 59’s Mike Chappell, former Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich was fired over the phone on Monday morning by team owner Jim Irsay:

“That changed – his immediate future was turned upside-down – with a Monday morning phone call from Jim Irsay,” writes Chappell.

‘At about 10:45,’ Reich told Chappell was when he received the news from Irsay.

“They talked – Reich mostly listened – and Irsay informed his head coach he was being fired after four-plus seasons,” Chappell noted from his recent conversation with Reich.
