Colts talking with Trestman?

First, the Indianapolis Colts looked to the Montreal Alouettes to potentially fill their vacant general manager's position. Now the NFL club is looking to the CFL club for a new head coach.

According to a report by ESPN, Alouettes head coach Marc Trestman has met with the Colts about their head coaching position, having done so last weekend.

The Colts are in the market for a new head coach after giving Jim Caldwell his walking papers earlier this month.

Alouettes general manager Jim Popp was interviewed by the Colts earlier this month about their vacant GM job, a post that eventually went to Ryan Grigson.

Trestman, in Mobile, Ala., this week for the Senior Bowl, remains under contract with the Alouettes through the 2012 season. Trestman has been Montreal's head coach the past four seasons, leading the club to a pair of Grey Cup titles.

However, Trestman has reportedly starting negotiating a contract extension to remain in Montreal past this season.
