Colts part ways with defensive coordinator Gus Bradley after challenging 2024 season

The Indianapolis Colts have decided to part ways with defensive coordinator Gus Bradley after a challenging season in 2024. Bradley, who joined the Colts in 2022, previously served as the defensive coordinator for the Las Vegas Raiders in 2021. During his tenure, the Colts' defensive rankings saw a decline, finishing 29th in total defense and 24th in scoring defense in his final season. Despite the dismissal, head coach Shane Steichen and general manager Chris Ballard are set to return next season, as the team aims to enhance its performance and end its playoff drought.
