The Indianapolis Colts remain a strong team in the 2025 NFL season. Despite suffering a 23-20 overtime loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, the Colts (8-3) are still in the conversation for the playoffs.
Besides Daniel Jones and Jonathan Taylor leading one of the most explosive offenses in the league, the defense has improved massively since the arrival of Lou Anarumo. The defensive coordinator was fired by the Cincinnati Bengals after the 2024 season, and it didnāt take long for the Colts to acquire his services.
Anarumoās defense has played at a high level, pressuring its opponents successfully week after week. The Colts havenāt allowed 30 points in a single game this season, and Anarumoās performance is drawing attention around the league.
Giants reportedly interested in Lou Anarumo
Many teams will be in search of a new head coach after the 2025 season. The New York Giants, who recently fired Brian Daboll, are already looking for options to take over. According to NFL insider Josina Anderson, Anarumo is on their radar.
Defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo
āA league source says Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo is expected to receive strong consideration for the Giants head coach vacancy this upcoming cycle, while also emphasizing his familiarity and relationship with current general manager Joe Schoen,ā Anderson reported. āIt remains to be seen how much said connection will influence ownership, relative to Schoenās status, once the search is complete.ā
The Colts are enjoying a lot of success. Anarumo has played a key role in their turnaround. Even if the Giants go with a different candidate, the defensive coordinator should draw attention from other franchises.
