The Colts are bringing back longtime NFL offensive line coach Howard Mudd, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.
The team announced Thursday it added the 76-year-old Mudd as a senior offensive assistant. The Colts also signed Klayton Adams as assistant offensive line coach.
Mudd, long considered one of the best offensive line coaches in the NFL, returns to Indy, where he spent 12 seasons as the team’s O-line coach from 1998 to 2009 and was a member of the Colts’ Super Bowl XLI championship team.
Mudd briefly retired after 2009 only to resurface with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2011-2012 before stepping away from the NFL the past six seasons.
