INDIANAPOLIS -- Chuck Pagano will not be with the Colts after this season, according to ESPN.

ESPN cites the Colts problems this season and his 'toxic' relationship with General Manager, Ryan Grigson.

At his press conference Friday, Pagano said he "hasn't had time to think about any of that stuff other than this ball game."

Pagano also turned down a contract extension prior to the start of this season.

As of Wednesday, Pagano remained optimisticabout the Colts' season.

The Colts were expected by many to compete for the AFC title, but all the injuries have added up to a 7-8 record.

Barring a long list of results this Sunday, the Colts will miss the playoffs entirely.
