Colts' coaching search: Kris Richard comes from Pete Carroll's coaching tree

The Indianapolis Colts have wasted no time seeking permission to interview candidates for their head coaching vacancy after firing Chuck Pagano on Sunday. They have received permission to talk to New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, Carolina Panthers defensive coordinator Steve Wilks, Houston Texans defensive coordinator Mike Vrabel, Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy and Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator Kris Richard.

With a healthy Andrew Luck, the Colts job would be one of the more attractive openings in the NFL. But nobody knows if that will be the case until the quarterback starts his throwing regimen at some point.
