The Colts have added some veteran voices to the defensive coaching staff to work under Bradley. That includes defensive backs coach Ron Milus and linebackers coach Richard Smith.
They’ve also added some young coaches to the staff like former safety Mike Mitchell, former linebacker Cato June and former wide receiver Reggie Wayne.
Fox hasn’t coaches in the NFL since 2017. He was the head coach for the Carolina Panthers (2003-2010), Denver Broncos (2011-2014) and Chicago Bears (2015-2017). He also served as the defensive coordinator for the New York Giants (1997-2001) and the Oakland/Los Angeles Raiders (1995-1996).
