Sources: Eagles hire ex-Colts OC Marcus Brady as consultant

PHILADELPHIA -- The Eagles have hired former Colts offensive coordinator Marcus Brady as a consultant, according to league sources.

Brady, 43, is working primarily with defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon and his staff, offering perspective as an offensive coach on how he would attack the Eagles' defense, a source said.

Having coached in Indianapolis alongside coach Nick Sirianni for three seasons, Brady would have intimate knowledge of some of the offensive principles the Eagles employ, seeing how Sirianni's time in Indianapolis played a big role in shaping the Eagles' coach.

The Eagles and Colts played last week, with Philadelphia edging Indianapolis 17-16.
