Former Indianapolis/Baltimore Colts Head Coach Ted Marchibroda passed away today at the age of 84.
“We are extremely saddened and mourn the loss of Ted Marchibroda,” said Colts Owner and CEO Jim Irsay. “He had a proud history not just with the Colts, but also as a player, coach and broadcaster for over half a century with the NFL. Ted was an innovator and turned the Colts into an instant playoff team when he took his first head coaching role in 1975. Ted was as humble as they come, and he represented the Colts and our community with class both off the field and on.
