INDIANAPOLIS -- The Indianapolis Colts have hired Greg Manusky as defensive coordinator.

New general manager Ryan Grigson made the announcement Thursday. He says Indy also has brought in Roy Anderson as the secondary coach. He'll be in charge of safeties. Marwan Maalouf will coach special teams.

First-time head coach Chuck Pagano hired Bruce Arians as offensive coordinator this week and is still trying to fill jobs on his assistant coaching staff. Grigson also confirmed that former offensive coordinator Clyde Christensen would remain on staff. It has not been determined whether he will coach quarterbacks or receivers.

Grigson acknowledged that the Colts would like to re-sign three key veterans -- receivers Pierre Garcon and Reggie Wayne and defensive end Robert Mathis.
