Colts coach Chuck Pagano returns Monday

Colts head coach Chuck Pagano will hold a press conference at 12:15 on Monday and is expected to take back the reins from interim coach Bruce Arians.

Indianapolis Colts head coach Chuck Pagano went on indefinite leave three months ago after being diagnosed with leukemia, but he's expected to get back to his coaching duties starting on Monday. He was cleared by doctors following his latest round of chemotherapy to return to the team.

Pagano will be holding a press conference at 12:15 p.m. ET, when he is expected to take back the reins from interim coach Bruce Arians. The press conference will be streamed live on Indy’s official website, as per the team’s official Twitter account.

Pagano will be returning to a Colts team that is currently 10-5 and has a spot in the playoffs clinched going into Week 17. The playoff spot was secured with a win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 16. They will be the fifth seed in the AFC, and can end up 11-5 with a win in their final game of the season against the AFC South-leading Houston Texans.
