Legendary NFL head coach Bill Cowher emotionally labelled the Indianapolis Colts’ interim hiring of Jeff Saturday as a ‘disgrace to the coaching profession’ before he led them to a win over the Las Vegas Raiders.
Over this past week, the Colts fired long-time coach Frank Reich and surprisingly hired ESPN analyst - and former Colts center - Saturday to much uproar. Considering Saturday has no head coaching experience at any level, many have slammed the decision to hire the 47-year-old.
Critics have criticised Colts owner Jim Irsay’s decision to bring Saturday in - and many aren’t happy Saturday accepted the job. He played for the Colts for 13 seasons, winning a Super Bowl while being named to four All-Pro teams before he retired after spending the 2012 season with the Green Bay Packers.
