Reports: Colts hiring former Bengals DC Lou Anarumo for same role

The Indianapolis Colts are hiring Lou Anarumo as defensive coordinator, according to multiple media reports on Monday.

Anarumo, 58, served the past six seasons as DC in Cincinnati before the Bengals fired him on Jan. 6.

Cincinnati went 9-8 and won its last five games but missed the playoffs. The Bengals finished the season 25th in total defense (348.3 yards per game) and tied for 25th in points allowed (25.5 per game).

The Colts fired defensive coordinator Gus Bradley, 58, on Jan. 6 after three seasons. The defense allowed 25.1 points per game (24th) and 361.2 yards per game (29th).

Anarumo was the Bengals’ defensive coordinator from 2019-24, a role he also served as interim with Miami in 2015. He was the Dolphins’ defensive backs coach in 2014-17, and coached the New York Giants’ defensive backs in 2018.
