The Indianapolis Colts are a hot topic right now all thanks to Jim Irsay’s decision to make Jeff Saturday the head coach. Coaching legend Tony Dungy now weighs in on the situation and he’s completely flabbergasted with what’s going on in Indianapolis.
Tony Dungy Is Baffled By The Colts’ Latest Moves
During an appearance on The Dan Patrick Show, Dungy shares his thoughts on what’s transpiring with his former team. He believes the Colts should have allowed Frank Reich to finish the year. Additionally, Tony Dungy is not a fan of the quarterback situation either. Give it a listen below.
Interesting Stuff from @TonyDungy: He told us @JimIrsay did not reach out to him for his input about making a move at Head Coach. Had he, Tony says he would’ve tried to talk him into sticking with Frank Reich. He also doesn’t understand why Nick Foles isn’t starting at QB. #Colts pic.twitter.com/Sp1jnu5TVI

It’s kind of a bad look for Jim Irsay to not even reach out to Dungy to at least pick his brain first. You’d think the team owner would want to hear the opinion of a former Super Bowl-winning head coach. Regardless, the Colts hired Jeff Saturday anyway and are forcing Sam Ehlinger to remain as the starting quarterback.
Tony Dungy makes valid points throughout, as his questions and concerns match nearly everyone else. We’ll see how this all plays out for the Colts, as Jeff Saturday is either going to prove to be the right head coach for the job or not. Keep an eye on this team, as it’s unpredictable what Indianapolis is going to do moving forward.
