(CNN)The Indianapolis Colts have hired Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen as their new head coach, the team announced on Tuesday.
Steichen replaces interim head coach Jeff Saturday, who took over from Frank Reich when the Colts fired him in early November 2022.
Behind star quarterback Jalen Hurts, Steichen masterminded the highest-scoring offense in the NFC in 2022 -- and second-best league-wide -- helping lead the Eagles to a 14-3 regular season record and eventually Super Bowl LVII, where they lost 38-35 to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Despite the agonizing loss, the Eagles offense was potent and Hurts set numerous offensive records in the game behind Steichen's play-calling.
Colts owner & CEO Jim Irsay and General Manager Chris Ballard are set to introduce Steichen to the media at 12:15 p.m. ET Tuesday.
