Sources: Colts won't retain Pagano after season

INDIANAPOLIS -- Short of an unexpected playoff berth, the Indianapolis Colts do not plan to retain coach Chuck Pagano at the end of the season, while general manager Ryan Grigson will at least help in the coaching search, league sources told ESPN.com.

The consensus has been that Pagano would not return next season after he turned down a contract extension, the Colts struggled this season and his relationship with Grigson turned "toxic."
