Shane Steichen, offensive coordinator of the Philadelphia Eagles, has emerged as the favorite to become the next head coach of the Indianapolis Colts.

The Colts and Steichen cannot agree to a deal until after Super Bowl LVII on Sunday. 

The Eagles hired Nick Sirianni as head coach after he was offensive coordinator of the Colts.

Steichen would become the second Eagles offensive coordinator hired by the Colts as their head coach. Frank Reich, who was fired by the Colts earlier this season, also was Philadelphia's offensive coordinator before being hired as Indianapolis' head coach in 2018.
