The Indianapolis Colts have begun narrowing their list of finalists for the head coach vacancy, and it looks like Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Ejiro Avro is on that list.
Avro, 42, was one of the first candidates to interview virtually for the vacancy after the regular season ended. He has been a hot candidate and has impressed in almost all the interviews in the league.

Specializing in the defensive back position, Avro has played a number of supporting roles during his coaching career. Most recently, he spent four seasons serving as the safeties coach for the Los Angeles Rams (2017–2020) as well as the secondary coach and passing game coordinator (2021).
Avro made his league debut with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2007–2009) as the defensive quality control coach. He then spent five seasons with the San Francisco 49ers as the quality control coach (2011), offensive assistant (2012–2013) and defensive assistant (2014–2015).
Avro then followed this by moving to the Green Bay Packers as a defensive quality control coach (2016) before taking on a role with the Rams.
