Huey, the longest-tenured Colts assistant coach in recent seasons, will not be retained by the team, the Colts announced on Tuesday.
Huey spent 19 seasons with the Colts, the most for an assistant in franchise history.
"I thank Gene Huey for the work he has done for the club for many seasons," coach Jim Caldwell said in a statement. "During his time, Gene played a key role with many players both on and off the field, and he was a part of coaching staffs that helped create a very special time in franchise history.
"I thank him for his contributions and wish him continued success."
Huey, 63, coached 304 games with the Colts, also the most for an assistant in franchise history. In the last two decades, he has worked with 1,000-yard rushers and Pro Bowl running backs such as Edgerrin James -- the franchise's all-time leading rusher -- Marshall Faulk and Joseph Addai.
Each of those players made the Pro Bowl with the Colts.
